Not only is factory farming and the slaughter of animals inhuman to animals it is also inhuman to humans. I really have not sympathy for the workers. They choose to work there.
Besides experiencing psychological distress, slaughterhouse workers are subjected to various physical and biological hazards. An industry article published this week on meatingplace.com illustrates one such scenario: “The mysterious illnesses in Minnesota and Indiana pork plant workers from November 2006 to May 2008 were caused by an autoimmune response to a mist of pig brain tissue.” It goes on to explain that workers, especially those stationed closest to what they call the “head table,” experienced neurological ailments as a result of being exposed to the “tissue mist” when “compressed air was used to extract pig brains.” Still, according to the article, scientists looking into this situation say that the exact biological mechanism of the disease might never be known.
