The video we saw on THURSDAY

The video is mainly about the animals being brutally killed. They are slammed to the floor head floor the little piglets that are just born in the slaughter houses. The animals that are very sick and that are not growing fast enough are just killed. Cows that are just being borne gets dragged away from their mothers and are sent to be slaughtered for their meet. they chop off the pigs testicles and they cut in their skins while they are still alive causing them to die slowly. pigs are shot in the head with a steel rod and are hanged for their meet. Pigs get their throat slit while they are fully suffering for their lives.The message is to become a vegan and end animal cruelty.

Review for MIDTERM

In the book fast food nation many of the factory owners and the workers do not care about the chickens well being- The workers torture the chickens and they kill the chickens in the most horrific way because their mad, their being abused as well or they feel joy in killing the chickens anyway because they are having a bad day. Many of the fast food owners do not care about the customers and only their money. The system that we live in today is very corrupt. They are very greedy and because they have alot of power America basically have no place for the poor only the rich and successful that have things they want.

BLOG 3

The end of over eating: The summary of the passage basically talks about how its bad to overeat. They talk about the history in which people do over eat because they get costumed to the fat food that we eat today and millions of people world wide do not care about their health just ON whether the food tastes good or not. Based on the economy people eat all the time, they eat when they are hungry, they eat when they are not hungry, people eat when they are sad, and they eat when they celebrate which adds up to millions of people obeast because they are not watching what ingredients are in the food they are consuming. Many people that eat because of pain eats alot and don't realize their eating out of  control and don't want to be told that they are eating too much. They are very much in denial of how many food they should be eating per day. Many Americans gain weight mostly because they don't care about their bodies and being spoiled by alot of junk foods that are in  store and being televised.  Also drugs can also make you gain weight because of the chemicals that are in there.

Blog 2: Explaining contridictions

In this particular topic I am going to talk about how a contridiction helps you signify the difference between two valid arguments that create one argument that isnt neccesarily true. In the book Fast food nation on page 149 the companies controdict the workers buy not giving them the proper care and treatment for all the hard work they do in the slaughter house.The workers  kill the chickens.The workers Makes sure that everything is done on record time, and they always do their job well. They dont get enough credit for the work that they do. That's not fair at all and thats an important controdict to analyze. On page 149 on fast food nation the poverty, the crime rate have increased,they have drug abusers, and homelessness because the  companies simply care about themselves and nobody else. the slaughter houses would often be closed because of the crimes and the abuses the immigrants would get. Also, if the slaughter houses are in bad condition the companies wouldnt care because they would mostly want to spend the money on themselves and not the bad condition the slaughter houses are in.
