The USDA wants to speed up the poultry slaughter lines, for the second time, allegedly for human health. If the butcher and factory farm industry dominated agency wanted to protect human health, it would run public service announcements, labels on packaging, etc. to inform the public that chicken flesh causes death from food poisoning, cancer, arthritis, kidney malfunction etc.
The USDA is only interested in saving their bosses in the slaughter businesses money.. that is why they want to speed up the lines.
Ronald Reagan's administration doubled the speed of poultry killing lines.. which meant
many chickens with cancer passed through. If the USDA has its way, many more birds will be boiled alive, many more chickens with cancer (human chauvinists call leukemia leukosis when a chicken has it... however it is transmitted to humans who eat it).
