[The Architect Of Fate]

You know, I often get amazed at how ignorant people are about global problems. Superbacteria, caused primarily by us preventatively giving antibiotics to farmed animals, are probably the greatest threat to human race today. That's a way more serious issue than global warming is... But almost nothing is done about it. No government has yet banned preventative use of antibiotics in farmed animals. And very little money is given to the research on new classes of antibiotics (which, if we are lucky, may be used to fight superbacteria). That, in my opinion, is yet another failure of democracy: people don't know about that issue (or they at least greatly underestimate the severity of the problem), so nothing is done to mitigate it until it's too late.

And when my grandchildren, living in a world destroyed by pandemics of superbacteria, ask me "Did you do everything you could to prevent this?", what should I tell them? I can show them this amazingly ignorant comment, so they will get the idea of why we did almost nothing. I will be able to tell them that I was a vegan, so that I at least did not support the system that causes superbacteria... but that's basically it.

The use of Antibiotics in livestock is heavily regulated......


Again you demonstrate you don't know what you are talking about and are simply talking......
