Killing Fields
"In Europe a cow receives three dollars per day in subsidy;
in Japan, it's eight, whereas half of the world's farmers live on less than two dollars per day.
In the US, on average, a cow requires 25 acres worth of feed, whereas the average land-holding of farmers in developing countries is four acres. The cow is the most food-secure animal in the world.
If Orwell were writing today, he would say, 'All animals are equal but some are even more equal than human beings'."
