Without this kind of unsafe drugging of animals, meat would probably be more expensive. But expensive meat is only a problem if people eat a lot of it, like Americans do today. The solution to this problem, really is to eat less meat. There are many health benefits to eating less meat, in addition to the antibiotics problem. Two books that explain this well are The Enzyme Factor by Hiromi Shinya and The China Study by T. Colin Campbell. This matches my own experience as well. I used to have a nasty acne problem. Cutting down on meat (and dairy) has made my skin much nicer. Every Grain of Rice: Simple Chinese Home Cooking by Fuchsia Dunlop is a great cookbook for (mostly) plant foods, by the way. It seems that the Chinese have been aware of the health benefits of a diet centered around plants, rather than meat and dairy, for a very long time.
