When will we address the issue of why production lines are experiencing high volumes? Do we ignore our increasingly unsustainable demand for meat?

John Oliver has obviously not worked as a member of management in a union shop. Management is charged with following the workers around cracking the whip and writing up violations, while labor hides and slacks off whenever and wherever they can. Not all, but a lot. It's a game they play so leadership from both sides can sit down at the table once a month and trade violations for grievances. Totally unproductive and a waste of time, but that's life in a union shop.

In Germany we do not employ those workers. Instead they are self-employed. They have to rent the equipment from the slaughter house, life in together with other workers in the same room, and do not get health insurance (which would have been necessary if they were employed, as this is mandatory in Germany). As no German would work under these conditions, these workers come from eastern European countries which are associated with or part of the EU. If they get sick, they are send back home.

I'd love to work for Osha yet I have never seen any recruiting information about them. I once worked for an incredibly cheap boss. He refused to spend extra on anything. Cheap fixes all the way. The "warehouse" I was working for door collapsed down on top of me one day. Luckily I was in caged forklift. He wanted me to put it back together. I've never worked on one and knew it could be dangerous tensioning the spring. Spring was massive and over 40 years old, nearly slipped on me multiple times. That entire warehouse was just a fire waiting to happen. I've had other bad experiences in different workplaces. Employers know osha just isnt going to show up to enforce anything.

Americans, you have to realize that every major industrialized country in the world has a national health insurance plan (UK, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Taiwan...). People do not lose their homes paying for overpriced healthcare. It is a human right and healthy democracies treat all citizens equally. The US is the weird exception, where Republicans have brainwashed many to think it is some kind of socialism (if so, then all insurance is, but it isn’t; who owns health?). Second, the Republicans stand for deregulation, which means that Trump and his ilk want to eliminate OSHA and all agencies that would hold companies to healthy standards, as this video shows. “OSHA has to be rebuilt” means stop electing Republicans who are for maximum profits for companies, not the well-being of the poor workers who work like slaves in such shitty conditions. This is 2021. Learn from the pandemic or die.

The entire point of life: Jesus did not come to be served, but to serve. Mathew 20: 28. We are no different. This entire life is a representation of the spiritual warfare going on. Good vs evil. God isn't a flying man in the sky, but the actual representation of Love, Hope, Joy, Peace, Light, etc. Not metaphor, but literally, like an extra demintional wavelength of thought, emotions, and intent. The devil is the opposite wavelength, pain, fear, hate, anger, darkness, etc. Human life is serving one of these two. Not a man in the sky, actual sentient collective universal Love. However, humans are primatives, we make mistakes. It's in our nature, since the fall, to go down the wrong path. This means at some time each one of us has served darkness to some degree. God understands our limited understanding of our own actions, so he gave us forgiveness, though sacrificing himself in human form as Jesus Christ. It is our duty to accept that sacrifice, get the forgiveness, and be better, helping others be better, and spreading this wavelength of Love, Hope, Joy, Peace, Light, etc, thoughout the universe. But God had to make a way for us to get to this place spiritually, this is why evidence is not allowed. Evidence will make you believe, using the fear of absolute punishment to change your behavior, but that won't make you better, just scared. Faith makes you better. It is what redeemes us, not our works. Faith is the hope that things get better, that justice always prevails, that we're at least loved by our creator. But it has to be Faith in Jesus, because of his sacrifice. And there can't be evidence to point us to him, because Love had to be fair. If there were a code in our DNA, what about everyone born before genetic sequencing? If there were a book with the solar system thosands of years ago, what would stop an evil person from hiding/destroying it? If it were something you had to go to, what about the geographically isolated, imprisoned, or enslaved. If it were a train of logic, what about the uneducated, or mentally slow? Not to mention all the people born before schools. Love cannot give to one without giving to the other. So the key to salvation had to be something everyone has access to. The only thing is Faith. This is why God puts it upon your heart to learn about these things, even if it's only to criticize, or hate. God is everywhere, because Love is everywhere, and so is the devil, because hate is everywhere. They're in your head all the time, regardless of weather or not you accept that. They whisper inside your heart, giving you ideas. But more than that, they're inside everyone's heart. This is how they get things done. They corrordanate us like pieces on a chess board. The only difference is, we get to chose who's side we're playing for. At the end of our life, we go to that team's home base, Heaven, or Hell. A place where all that exists is those wavelengths. Hate, pain, anger, fear, darkness; or Love, Hope, Joy, Peace, Pleasure, Light. The choice is yours to make. But you cannot go to Heaven with hate in your heart. You must forgive, repent, and spread joy for those around you. These are sentient eternal controlling forces in our universe. Heaven and Hell are very real places, I've seen them. Those steps prime your soul for a meeting with God. Very literally. Once you've done all four, in that order, you get divine revelation, with all the evidence you'll ever need. They are, forgive your parents, brake down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read the Bible. Step four takes three books to get the revelation. I recommend Genesis, Mathew, and then either Luke, Psalms, or proverbs. The order of the steps is important, step 1 has to come before step 3. I can state that for an absolute certainty that these steps always work. Please, take your salvation seriously. See for yourself. Do those steps. Jesus Christ is Lord. It's all True,

Why not educate people on the option to not eat meat? At least give those who are willing to make a change the information they need to switch to a healthy plant-based lifestyle. In my experience, the majority of people are unaware that it is even an option (as they believe that meat is essential, when it isn't), and even those who are aware often feel it isn't a realistic option, because they don't know how to do it (and so they don't even try). Just giving people information on how to eat plant-based could ease the pressure on the meat packing industry (by encouraging those who are willing to go plant-based).

If you have the time and if you have a twitter account please use #DontKillItBernie with this message "Bernie Sanders, as Chair of the Budget Committee, decides what goes in the COVID relief bill. It's his decision on whether a $15-per-hour minimum wage is included in the bill or not. If he keeps it in, it forces the Democrats to vote on it and means it has a chance of passing. If he takes it out, it means Bernie Sanders is killing the increase in minimum wage himself. We, the undersigned, have a clear message: Don't kill it Bernie!" and sign this petition: https://tyt.com/petitions/dontkillitbernie If Joe Manchin and Kristen Sinema are threatening to kill the stimulus bill over a 15$ min wage, we must call their bluff. In order for us to do that, the 15$ min wage MUST stay within the bill! Please urge Bernie as the Chair of the Budget Committee to not take the 15$ minimum wage, as this action will be used to throw him under the bus the moment corporate dems get the opportunity to do so.

Okay, I genuniely feel sorry forr workers in these meat packing plants. But I work at AMAZON, and at least 20,000 of us tested positive for the Covid - and that was way back in Ocotober last year! Who knows how many of us by end of February 2021, right? I've voluntarily tested 4 times, and so far clean. But I have lots of friends that have gone missing for a couple weeks only to have been out sick with this dreaded virus. There's hardly a week or two that goes by, our Hub doesn't inform us of more associates that tested positive. Honestly - it scares the crap out of you working under such fearful conditions as these. We comply with all sorts of extreme government safety protocols, but you try wearing a mask every second at your very physical job in 10- and 11-hour shifts. Mentally, you feel like your gagging, or even suffocating; but physically, nauseousness and persistent headaches - probably from inability to breath freely. Fun fact: Around Christmas, we had a nearby sister plant close entirely due to such large numbers of Covid-infected workers. So yea, be afraid - be very afraid to work indoors around thousands of coworkers.

You know what is really sad? Is that as a Researcher, and after looking at the available Covid-19 data in June of 2020, I personally contacted several federal, state, and county agencies to warn them that potential new Covid-19 Variants from Zoonotic transmission. I thought it could be the reason for the high density and lethal Covid cases in meat processing plants. I specifically asked if they were monitoring and testing animals used for food. I also asked if Covid could be spread if you came in contact with bodily fluids of Covid infected humans and animals. No was the answer I always got. Then we later find out that 10,000 minks (used to make expensive coats and hats) were killed here in the US because they contracted Covid and when it bounced back to the workers it was a crap in your pants and your buddy's pants scary mean Covid Variant. Same thing happened in Denmark and the UK! In July 2020 an animal conservation group asked the UK government to eradicate all the American Mink species because they were an invasive species in UK. In one instance, when they killed the minks and buried the animals the government made the Mink Farmers dig back up all those rotting Minks and they had to burn everything! No hides to turn into a coat! So back to meat processing plants... The workers who became infected at the Meat Processing Plants and went to the store, restaurant, or home to the wife & kids and mom and dad these workers became super spreaders of potentially new Covid variants. Remember, each time Covid-19 gets into an animal Covid adjusts (or mutates) itself to this new type species of life! And when it's transmitted back from animals to humans it can mutate even more. Even after 1 year no public studies have been done to determine what Covid variant each Meat Processing Plant Worker who got infected had. Nor has there been any public studies and testing of each animal that got processed. A sample of blood and some lung tissue from each would help defend everyone from a new variant of Covid! Sad... Very Sad!

Couldn't OSHA staffing issues be resolved by seeding individuals already on staff or intent on taking a position in production with OSHA guidelines training? There could be designs on compensation that don't encourage false claims nor permit the companies from undermining their covert observation. Our intelligence services are empowered to infiltrate where there is need to, handling informants who are willing to act in accordance with the government. What good is OSHA if it can't be and underhanded bastard?
