unfortantely, Tracy, I don't want to support ANY pig farmers.

But good work on making this film. Thank you.

Great film. There will be a huge price to pay if factory farms continue to operate. To those corporate boneheads at the likes of Smithfields won't be able to enjoy their riches if they are sick as a result of eating from a sick system. Maybe some of them are smart enough though to know that their own pig slop isn't good for them and they eat better quality=organic, free range.

THe feudile system will Robert. The illuminati killed Lincoln. We are slaves to the money masters

What a great documentary! Very concisely links the Corporate world, global trade and the Central Bankers together while demonstrating the effects they are having on indigenous populations everywhere.

This was just what I needed for that final push to move the last of my dollars out of that system. Thank you.

@MsHojat Well people need to see it until its over until this unnatural suffering and obscene cruelty stops.

[MsHojat]

@flake452 I'm personally glad. Do people still need to hear about pig suffering? Do they still not know about it? There's already all sorts of documentation - movies, pictures, literature - that covers this stuff, and I don't know why the point would need to be mentioned, it's flogging a dead horse.

Not only that, but as i mentioned, I'm not even necessarily a fan of ethical pig treatment. However when you're running small farms, you're generally not going to have horribly treated pigs though.

Good work on the video.

Personally I can completely care less about the treatment of animals with regards to anything other than what makes them nutritious/edible/safe, such as ethical treatment.

Everything else is very important though, for both the environment, and our own well-being (to which the environment is just an extension of anyway).

Nature kills millions of animals regularly on it's own in very cruel methods. A pig in a cage is no different than a suffocating fish or tortured rodent

I liked the documentary as a whole, I just feel like it did not show enough about the suffering of the pigs.

I read elsewhere about this documentary's terrible struggle with Britain's anti-libel laws. Thanks for putting it out here for us to see; I'm very sorry to know that after all your work, you didn't get a chance to get a very public viewing. I grew up in America's 2nd-largest livestock producing county (a very rural area of Iowa) and can attest to the omnipresent stench and ugliness that these businesses bring to the landscape.

We need to stop supporting this! Stop buying mass-produced junk and support local folks trying to make money doing what they do best. You do not matter to multinationals, but your money does! They will change or go broke, once the billions stop rolling in.
