So if enough people complain and make bad press about McDonalds using nasty beef instead of clean, grass-fed cows.nothing will change.

That the only way to make some change is if McDonalds will make the change. (This is not new and it's also the reason i don't drink milk.) The author also says that the government will not change any of this. The USDA is not allowed to police the thing it was set up to police. The FDA doesn't care about the food you eat. And when the companies are caught they have to pay a piddly fine. the real one and the one they turn in to OSHA. The meat companies hire doctors to lie about the severity of injuries and, and, and they keep two injury logs. OSHA is not allowed to investigate a factory unless the injury records show above the national average. The meat industry is so corrupt and has bought so many republican congressmen that it has no watchdogs, no police. coli 0157:H7, which, as far as i can tell, is like ebola, it turns your organs into mush. The meat companies can voluntarily recall meat, but they can't be forced to, even if the meat is infected with epidemic proportions of e. The USDA cannot recall meat that is unhealthy. He talks about how our government is supposed to regulate and keep us safe from unhealthy meat and that it not only doesn't do that, but CAN'T do that, legally. He discusses the ranchers, the feedlots, the slaughter houses, and the packaging companies. it's the workers that have it so bad that i just want to take them all away from that horrible job and give them all sacks of money and comfortable chairs to sit on.) I would cry at the working conditions of the meat industry (and trust me, i'm not crying over the cows. I would read this book in the mornings as i drank my coffee and I would get so mad at how only a few people can make so many people miserable. He mainly talks about the greed, power, and evilness of fast food companies. The author barely touches the 'fast food is full of fat and fattiness' deal. Not that the author would eat McDonalds everyday but that he would talk mostly about the unhealthiness of fast food. I thought that this book was going to be like Super-size Me only in book form.
