Human rights

The way IBP treats their employees and even the animals is not acceptable. The farmers lose their business, the employees don't have any rights, and the food IBP produces/packages is not healthy. The employees of IBP are generally unskilled immigrants, and they work for the lowest salary and don't get any healthcare. There jobs are terrible and dangerous and the consumer has almost no choice then buying their product and though supporting corporations with every purchase. The poor consumer supports with it's taxes corporations like Mc Donald's, Burger King, Subway, Taco Bell that are allowed to treat employees like tools and produce cheap unhealthy food. The way they produce a simple burger or taco, violates human rights, animal rights and has nothing to do with farming. It is time to make a change and stop supporting these corporations in exchange of a greasy burger/taco. Eric Schlosser's "Fast Food Nation" gives people an opportunity to look behind the shiny storefront.

  1. Hey, I'm Damaris. I appreciate your suggestion and based on your blogs I see how separating the issue from the opinion is a good idea. I think you have great ideas and opinions. Some your topics are a bit complicated to understand but that is probably because of my lack of knowledge on politics. Overall your work is good, it is interesting to see the same book we have read in a different light.

    **On a different topic, has anyone told you look like Prof. Cooper? =)
