Thank you so much for this answer. It's so damn frustrating to hear all these conspiracy theorist explanations when it is really exactly as you say: everyone is incentivized to increase American power, even though they've been indoctrinated since their early childhood to believe that this is not what America is supposed to be about.

Of course, manifest destiny runs completely counter to the original principles of American government too.

I'm not sure if you're still answering questions, but here goes.

When I try to tell others of the information I have seen about pervasive animal cruelty, I sometimes get the objection that the examples I give (like the Mercy for Animals investigations) are "isolated" ones.

Is this problem truly systemic? If so, how do you defend this assertion?

Thanks very much for the response, and thank you for the great work you are doing.

Hey, I don't know if you're still answering questions. I'd like to ask two things:

1. I have heard that cows only give milk if they are pregnant or have recently given birth. What happens to the male baby cows? I know you said you sell them, but to whom? What happens to them?

2. How old are the milking cows before you sell them or slaughter them?
