Don't Buy the Lie: Vote No on Issue 2

On November 3, Ohio voters will decide whether to adopt Issue 2, an amendment to the Ohio Constitution that would create a Livestock Care Standards Board. The Ohio Farm Bureau and other Big Ag players rushed the amendment through the Ohio Assembly as a preemptive strike against the Human Society, who sought to phase out the most inhumane livestock care practices, like battery cages. The board will likely be stacked with agribusiness representatives and serve the interests of factory farms. An abuse of the Constitution, if adopted, the board would have sweeping authority and little accountability to the public. Vote NO on Issue 2!

Thanks for the feedback and debate. If you like the video, please tell all your friends and family about it. If we're going to overcome the millions of dollars spent on misinforming the public during this campaign, we need folks spreading the word!

I'm not avoiing any question I'm avoiding becoming a stinking pig farmer. I do not ever foresee raisng pigs for slaughter for the masses. Therfore I will never feel the need to save every dumb piglet from every dumb sow to feed myself, family and friends. Only the smarter ones will survive to be eaten later.

Getting back to the issue...

It all revolves around two things and only two things. Logic vs emotion. It appears logic has won over emotion as far as issue 2 is concerned.

NO NO NO. SB5 must stay. Us working Ohioans in the private sector are being sqeezed to pay for the FAT pay, benefits, and especially the retirement package. We in the private sector are have not been keeping up with the state workers. You need to understand that property taxes are killing us. And colemans 1/2 percent (25% in real terms) did not help either. I get NO pension. NO benefits - when I retire at age 67. NO 30 and out. NO frills. Do you State workers understand?

You certainly did avoid the question If you actually meant what you said in all of your posts. Perhaps you just misspoke.?

As far as emotion vs. logic goes, you seem to be the emotional one in this discussion.
