That's why I garden esp on Mother's Day.
Billions are being given this year to Big Agriculture Corporations who Grow Chemical laden unhealthy Mono Crops which are Subsidized by Taxpayers ,The Poisoned Crops are Then Sold to Big Corporate Animal Farms Which Fatten up their unhealthy Animals Fast, and Slaughter them in order to Deliver a steady supply of unhealthy meat to Corporate fast food chains in order for them to maximize profits.
The theme here is that TAXPAYERS subsidize Poison. Corporate Lobbyist make sure Big Agriculture gets paid to grow then paid again to sell cheap to Big Corporate Fast food chains who gets CHEAP unhealthy Meat to Poison mostly POOR Communities. Their is little Choice when Markets are not in those communities and also when Healthy food is way more Expensive then 14 chemical laden nuggets for $ 1.50
