Agreed. I chimed in on an earlier article supporting eating meat- but higher mammals are a special case. Dolphins/Whales should be in the same category as Elephants and Apes. They are beings with complex social structures and individua

I'm aware. Quite pleased that distributors/retailers have started doing checks of their upstream suppliers. Just as manufacturers have done the same with upstream parts/materials suppliers- there is no requirement that meat e

Quite simply because there is not ethical imperative to stop- and its about nourishment rather than just enjoyment. Do we have an ethical imperative to stop cats from killing birds? All complex animal life on this planet consumes other livi

Lots of more precise words are not particularly 'big' words. One shouldn't have to pre-edit one's thoughts to pull out the better word because it doesn't fit into a typical 5th grade education. I love older British

So teenagers working part-time need to earn a living wage? Having a one-size-fits-all number is damaging. The problem is workers who don't hone a useful skill and create a record of reliability. Anyone that does that won't be maki

Notice you ignore the blacklist, which is the more relevant point. As far as Chomsky goes, this is actually a great illustration of the problem. I think he's a Communist, you disagree. Well guess what- a lot of the 'protestors&#x2
