I run a business and need to comply with California laws. By extensions really everyone benefits but it is a running joke that California is always problematic. These so far include stricter privacy laws, stricter automatic renewal and cancellation laws, stricter pollution laws on cars , better gas mileage, and of course the this product causes cancer prop 65 on many things. I’m with the Supreme Court on this one. If farmers in Ohio don’t want to make the changes they can forgo the market and sell to the other 48 states ( I think New York is similar ) or see where the next generation is probably going and move to a humanely raised pig. Obviously they are killed In the end so humanely raised is a misnomer. I do eat meat but am well aware of the downsides, especially as a pet owner myself. norm McDonald said it best - there is really no argument here except I like pork and want it cheap. If I set foot into a slaughterhouse or saw these cages in Ohio I can’t imagine I would be ok with it.
