Food

We all seem to identify with our ideologies these days and it seems that there is a new word for a new group every day. I'm seeing a pattern of more and more division. Of course in my country, the main ones are democrat and republican. They go at it constantly and no one ever defines terms only that one is right and one is wrong depending on which you are, and generally as a distraction from other important issues going on. Groups that I personally find important and think odd that they aren't friends or figure out a way to be in order to enact real change would be the vegans and the vegetarians. This hits close to home because I'm a farmer and I also think our food is the closest thing that defines our culture today and forever. I just want to ask a simple question, why can't the Vegans, the Vegetarians and, the non-factory farmed meat eaters get together and help to strengthen our food system? Because really that our meat and dairy come from such disgusting conditions as well as everything else farmed with chemicals, unsustainably, with exploited workers and prices. It's all apart of the same broken system and it says a lot about our culture. If the folks farming in healthy sustainable ways can't be separated from the evil profiteering world destroyers by any other way then charging​ more money for organic, then nothing will change. Yes, vote with your dollars, but please make it stop too.
