The market economy is not the best!

Valentina 2022-04-19 09:02:23

All this about food is terrifying, and it is the consequence of America's complete market economy. The theory of a complete market economy sounds reasonable, but in reality there are big problems. The complete marketization of the financial industry led to the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, which spread to the world economy. The complete marketization of the food industry has led to a crisis of food insecurity, which has caused us the embarrassment of having no safe food to eat. In a complete market economy society, how to get the most profit in the shortest time is the only problem that the seller is willing to consider. What's healthy and what's safe, it's best to have nothing to do with the seller after the thing is sold. Although the United States has detailed legal provisions and strong scientific theoretical research, driven by economic interests, the entire government, industry, and society are ignoring the continuous emergence of these unhealthy foods, which continue to damage human health. And even worse, these developed countries are sending these unhealthy lifestyles and unhealthy food products abroad, constantly fooling people in other countries. McDonald's, KFC, Coca-Cola and French fries, these foods that Americans know are junk are all over the world, earning hundreds of millions of dollars every year.
You really need to keep your eyes open and stay away from these junk food! !

Food, Inc. quotes

  • Joel Salatin: A culture that just uses a pig as a pile of protoplasmic inanimate structure, to be manipulated by whatever creative design the human can foist on that critter, will probably view individuals within its community, and other cultures in the community of nations, with the same type of disdain and disrespect and controlling type mentalities.

  • Joel Salatin: I'm always struck by how successful we have been at hitting the bull's-eye of the wrong target. I mean we have learned- for example, in cattle we have learned how to plant, fertilize and harvest corn using global positioning satellite technology, and nobody sits back and asks, "But should we be feeding cows corn?" We've become a culture of technicians. We're all into the how of it and nobody's stepping back and saying "But why?"
