Factory Farms???

you're not a PETA person are you?

I've been out of the meat packing industry for over 20 years now, but.......... even back then the producers.  Feed lots for cattle and hog confinements for hogs were designed to be decent for the animals.

Happy animals with less stress produce better quality meat than mistreated animals.  Even once these animals are unloaded at the slaughter facility the process is designed to calm them down and make things easy for them.

Tough to produce enough meat for a city the size of Phoenix with folks having a steer and a hog in the pen behind the house or a free range area in west Texas.

I agree.  That looks like the picture is taking looking to the west, and that's the way the heavier traffic is headed.  The sun is behind the photographer, over his/her right shoulder, like it would be mid-morning.



Looking at Google Maps, there's a Robertson Blvd. exit at Culver City for westbound traffic.  There's a nearby exit for eastbound traffic, but it doesn't exit directly onto Robertson Blvd.

And LAX is to the south (left), which would explain the airplane in the upper left climbing out.

Guys, no sleuthing necessary.  The tweet is labeled.

No, PETA is nuts.  
I think the decency and comfort of the animals is relative.  
But the key is this idea of "enough meat".  What does that mean?  Right now, it means producing enough meat for there to be enough for everyone who wants it and at a low-enough price they're willing to buy it.  If more was spent providing the meat, the cost would go up and people would eat less of it.  Can't have that - we have stockholders!
.
Anyway, the larger issue is land and water usage for meat production.  They are real issues that will worsen over time, probably sooner than climate change.  

Most paved roads followed whatever paths were already there obviously, some of which were literally cow paths.

This is a smart way to create sidewalks on school campuses and other large lots.  Wait a few weeks, see where the people create paths, and then pave them.  Too often, builders dictate where people walk when it should be the other way around.

so, are the poor people, I keep hearing about, eating too much meat because the price is too low?

When did I cite poor people when discussing this?

Wait, I thought only China did stuff like that...

King Woodrow Wilson!!

Yeah, but that doofus could be wrong. But in this case, he's not. Checking on a map of the area confirms it for me, as the roadway takes a turn to the left before the Robertson exit there.
