If they disappear, of course they won't be an issue anymore.
But I'm assuming he means that with a reduced demand for meat, it would mean that factory farms are going to have to find ways to reduce costs. And they're already doing their best to operate at the bare minimum. So any cost cutting measures will come at the expense of animal welfare.
- uxcolumbo 6y agoThe point is - there really is no animal welfare in the factory farm industry. We want the cheapest meat - don't care how. Caring for an animal's welfare is counter to that. If demand for meat goes down it means environmental damage is reduced and fewer animals have to be born, which means fewer animals have to suffer.
