Now I'm really confused: did you not read the sarcasm or did you read the sarcasm and are being sarcastic in return?
My head hurts.
Sarcasm? What sarcasm!?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

We fortunate 1st world motherfuckers plan our lives and adjust our moral code such that it is workable in the conditions we find here. By the same criterion you could deem higher education unnatural, or high speed internet on cell phones, or not going around killing people for food.

For example, folks come by my little stand, or sign up for my CSA - I'll pimp veganism all day long (they'll be buying more from me - and I know..by simple virtue of them being there, that they can afford it anyway).....but I wouldn't have the balls to peddle those same moral wares at the WIC office, lol.

Growing vegetables is a lot easier and cheaper than raising food animals. In fact, you end up having to grow vegetables anyway to feed the animals. I guess it would be true for any people who rely on fishing.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
