Title: Darn Vegans Don't Understand Economics
Post by: tp4tissue on Mon, 12 February 2018, 13:46:08

The meat industry employs 500,000 'muricans. 

YES,  eating meat, gives people heart-disease/ cancer/ diabetes/ stroke.



But it also gives its 500,000 workers and ancilliary industries  ~ $200 Billion in wages.

The Whole meat foods combine for ~$1,000,000,000,000 in Movement every year. That's 1 Trillion



If the Vegans had their way,  The main chain goes belly up.. 500,000 people unemployeed...


You think eating animals is bad..

If this goes down like the activists wanted, PEOPLE would be eating PEOPLE

Hey vegans.. YOU come up with 500,000 jobs...

Then the meat-producers can stop lying to consumers about their products not giving people heart-disease/ cancer/ diabetes and stroke.

Americans don't appear to actually pronounce "America" as "Murica". I've found it's much closer to "Hmericuh".

Pacifists don't understand economics.

Currently, 1.2 million people are employed in the US Armed forces with over 800,000 in reserve.

~$1,000,000,000 = 1 Billion

And I'm pretty sure those 500,000 jobs would transfer over to producing vegan food instead of meat if that were the case. But it probably won't be.

Fixed.. thx for catching typo user -b0b-


It's not about IF EVER there will be vegan jobs,   

The problem is in the Vegan Agenda of ACTION NOW...  save all the animals TODAY.


That is simply not practical, and could very much destabilize the economy..

Also not gonna save all the animals. There'd almost be no need for cows, chickens and pigs.

I used to know a vegetarian, who was vegetarian because of his religious beliefs. He'd wear a leather belt and leather shoes. I called him on it, and his excuse was "I'd like to think the cow was dead already"!
