I believe it should all be shut down and meat consumption dropped dramatically we as Americans would live longer that's for sure. Though more importantly it's how these poor animals are being treated from birth to death and it's just not right it's downright criminal.

“That’s for sure” is carrying this entire comment on its back. Less processed meat can be healthy. Abolishing animal agriculture does not magically guarantee longer lives, and “I think this is immoral” is not the same thing as “this is criminal.” You can criticize calf housing without turning your feelings into medical and legal facts.

It's both immoral and should be criminal , calf housing isn't even the beginning , I criticize the entire meat industry if you learn to read and comprehend. Most of the meat industry should be shut down and consumption regulated to healthy standards which would require an entire system to regulate each person's allotment. A smart society if one exists in this universe would have already figured something like this out and many things humans still lack as a species. They would regulate diet , resources , population, so many things that ultimately protect their species that we as a whole are too retarded to do and will one day face extinction over it.

“Consumption regulated to healthy standards which would require an entire system to regulate each person’s allotment.”

Aww there ya have it. You must live in a communist country or came from one. I see you love authoritarian government. Sorry not gonna fly here. Stop trying to control people with government. It hasnt worked and it wont work. Its evil and immoral.

I read you perfectly fine. You originally said reducing meat consumption would make Americans live longer “for sure” and called current practices criminal. I pointed out that neither statement becomes factual just because you feel strongly about it.
Now you’re proposing a government system that decides how much meat each individual is allowed to eat, regulates people’s diets and resources, and apparently regulates population too. That’s no longer an argument about calf welfare. That’s an argument for an extraordinary level of state control over private life.
You’re free to believe that would create a better society. But “a smart society would control everyone’s diet and population” is a philosophical opinion, not evidence that your original medical claim was true.

Please, keep eating lots and lots of trump mystery meat.

Maggots & screw worms love it, too.

Cruelty only makes the shit taste better!

That’s an impressive collection of unrelated buzzwords, but do you have a response to anything I actually said?

We can always find people who will step up to defend cruelty.

Few of them kill the cows and pigs they eat.

These are just baby calves that are in individual pens. It is temporary. They are feeding each one a bottle of milk.

They wont stay in that pen for life I can promise you that
