Netzingers -- Explicit coquina que est optima medicina.

Exporting the confined animal feeding operation (CAFO) model to Europe has resulted in the destruction of local farm economies in Poland, Romania, Liberia, Equatorial Guinea and the Ivory Coast.  So when cheap oil vanishes, and the global economy goes poof, these people will go hungry, either because they will be out of work or without imported meat.  That's what progress gets you: the most inequitable, fragile system imaginable.  The market rewards risk, as the saying goes.  The unspoken collolary is that the market penalizes sustainability at the same time.
