Reply #13: I'm a bit behind, as I just watched SICKO last night

(thanks to someone here who posted the link for the entire movie on youtube). I had put it off seeing it becasue I knew it would make me angry, but I did not count on the huge amount of digust I feel. And food is the second part of the health issue. If the lack of health care doesn't kill you, the food will.

I probably don't have the stomach to see this movie. I stopped eating meat about 20 yers ago because I read an article about the abuses of factory farming and hormone and antibiotics. I don't mind organic farming for meat, it's not like I think every one should stop eating meat. But everyone SHOULD know where their meat comes from.

I think it's one of the reasons I'm reasonably healthy today. But I'm under no illusions that I'm safe from bad food.
