One Response to The True Cost of Brucellosis

    Yet another excellent and informative article from Robert. I always learn so much from Roberts posts.

    Why can’t they take some of the money they spend on “managing” bison and develop a vaccine for the cattle? Oh that’s right. Then they’d have to admit the REAL reason they want the bison “removed”. They want the grass for the cows. STOP EATING BEEF.

Quote

‎"At some point we must draw a line across the ground of our home and our being, drive a spear into the land and say to the bulldozers, earthmovers, government and corporations, “thus far and no further.” If we do not, we shall later feel, instead of pride, the regret of Thoreau, that good but overly-bookish man, who wrote, near the end of his life, “If I repent of anything it is likely to be my good behaviour."

~ Edward Abbey
