in the wake of the latest china food fiasco ..

[frenchy]

does anybody here think its a good idea to have china get a large control over the pork and chicken industries ?? smithfield pork was one of their targets but i'm not sure how that went .. ( after all them dead pigs by the thousands were found floatin down the river in china ) that may have changed a few minds .. and now all them chicken nuggets they're makin just for the china market is under such close watch because of all the screwups that just came to light .. makes you wonder if they'll ever get the ok to be the main supplier to the usa of all the chicken nuggets as they had planed .. what with the dog food and dog biskets that was killin our dogs that was from china and the poison in the toothpaste .. ehh .. what next .. chinese chicken nuggets .. what could go wrong ??

It is a moral question as well as a political  or legal one.  They come from many countries so Mexico may view this much as we do. If they do end up being sent home and make it back alive, their fate may be one that we or anyone else would do their best to escape from.  We and other countries would best address the long term issue by helping to fix their countries so people do not feel so threatened that they have a need to migrate elsewhere. These children must be in extremely desperate circumstances to undertake such a journey with an uncertain ending.  A good topic for a International Political Philosophy course: What Are a Nation's Moral Obligations?

As for the actual topic of food, I too eat much venison (deer) but there are about 17-20 million White Tails and some Mule Deer but the human population is 317 million in the U.S. In the end we all may end up like that Soylent Green movie.;-)
