How republican
They will never be prosecuted. The meat lobby funnels millions of dollars to goverment officials. Thesr companies are predators. They care nothing for their workers neither their animals.
More proof that the USA thrives on corporate slavery.
It's guaranteed these are the children who went missing after the tRump administration removed them from their parents and put them in cages near the southern border, over fifteen hundred children were never accounted for after disappearing from the cages and the tRump administration did nothing to find them because tRump's cronies sold them into slavery.
Oh oh ! Someone forgot to pay their hush money
More graft. With the almighty dollar! Psi spokesmen. Need to be quiet!
They should be ashamed.
Democrats wet dream: illegal immigrant children doing the work that rich liberals are not willing to do
When there's a high demand for meat to arrive fresh and fast this is what u get. If u hire only Americans with full benefits and at least minimum wage all prices will go up and we'll complain. Or the company won't make money. Also most Americans don't want these jobs. So just shut up if you're a consumer you're the problem. We all are. These kids probably think they're lucky to be in America and have a job. But besides all this, there are worst situations for illegals that haven't come to light. Bottom line, put up that freaking wall.
It’s the Midwest. I’m not surprised. The thing out here is go to school, graduate and then be an adult.
More or less a lot of people out here have kids under 25, let alone many have em before hitting 20.
But the biggest factor is the fact there’s nothing out here that allows adults to feel young. It’s literally work as much as you can, go home and drink because why not and then rinse and repeat
The parents failed them.why have kids if you can't take care of them. People have choices to have children. Blame the parents for bringing them to an unjust world
I used to work for PSSI. Quit after three months. Freaking slave drivers.
“Our grandchildren will ask us one day: Where were you during the Holocaust of the animals? What did you do against these horrifying crimes? We won’t be able to offer the same excuse for the second time, that we didn’t know.”
Dr. Helmut Kaplan, an Austrian writer and Philosopher
“I refuse to eat animals because I cannot nourish myself by the sufferings and by the death of other creatures. I refuse to do so, because I suffered so painfully myself that I can feel the pains of others by recalling my own sufferings.”
Edgar Kupfer-Koberwitz, Dachau concentration camp survivor
“Let me say it openly: we are surrounded by an enterprise of degradation, cruelty, and killing which rivals anything that the Third Reich was capable of, indeed dwarfs it, in that ours is an enterprise without end, self-regenerating, bringing rabbits, rats, poultry, livestock ceaselessly into the world for the purpose of killing them.”
John Maxwell Coetzee, Nobel Award Winner in Literature
“ ‘Never again’ is not about what others shouldn’t do to us. It’s about what we shouldn’t do to others. ‘Never again’ means that we must never again perpetrate mass atrocities against other living beings. That we must never again raise animals for food or any other form of exploitation.”
Dr. Alex Hershaft, Warsaw Ghetto survivor
“When I see cages crammed with chickens from battery farms thrown on trucks like bundles of trash, I see, with the eyes of my soul, the Umschlagplatz (where Jews were forced onto trains leaving for the death camps). When I go to a restaurant and see people devouring meat, I feel sick. I see a holocaust on their plates.”
Georges Metanomski, a Holocaust survivor who fought in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising
“In the midst of our high-tech, ostentatious, hedonistic lifestyle, among the dazzling monuments to history, art, religion, and commerce, there are the black boxes. These are the biomedical research laboratories, factory farms, and slaughterhouses – faceless compounds where society conducts its dirty business of abusing and killing innocent, feeling beings. These are our Dachaus, our Buchenwalds, our Birkenaus. Like the good German burghers, we have a fair idea of what goes on there, but we don’t want any reality checks.”
Dr. Alex Hershaft, Warsaw Ghetto survivor
“Auschwitz begins wherever someone looks at a slaughterhouse and thinks: they’re only animals.”
Theodor W. Adorno
“Holocaust victims WERE treated like animals, and so logically we can conclude that animals are treated like Holocaust victims.”
Matt Prescott
“Never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.
“In fact, if one person is unkind to an animal it is considered to be cruelty, but where a lot of people are unkind to animals, especially in the name of commerce, the cruelty is condoned and, once large sums of money are at stake, will be defended to the last by otherwise intelligent people.”
Ruth Harrison
“There are many noteworthy examples of ordinary evil in every culture and country around the globe, but in terms of preventable evil I am hard pressed to find any examples that approach those systematically perpetrated by humans against the members of other species.”
Lawrence Pope
“Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is — whether its victim is human or animal — we cannot expect things to be much better in this world. We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic delight in killing, we set back the progress of humanity.”
Rachel Carson
Shut them down in gi
It's sickening the greed with the parents and the company having children working in a dangerouse, and grousome work environment.
Biden and his son got paid off so these corporations can do this.
Are they American citizens or border jumpers
Its an inside job , Mexicans usually hires only Mexican people to do these kinds of work.
Michigan has tons of Mexicans hiring illegals and underage workers, usually using their own people because of their ignorance.
This job is dangerous even for ADULTS let alone kids.
💚💚💚 Veganism, is right. The flesh business end product is death, for all.
Please leave animals off your plates. Please don’t support these child and animal abusers. 🌱👏🏼
give these DACA kids the chance to go to Harvard and colleges
