Hi,
This blogger received an email that I forwarded to many of you about a gigantic dairy farm in Indiana. It is proud of its mechanization that can provide milk to millions of people daily and I'm sure it is certifiably needed in the context of immense population. This blogger wanted to applaud its efficiency and efforts BUT........
THE ONLY THOUGHT THAT CAME TO MIND WAS...............
POOR COWS!!!!!!!!!!!
No munching in green grassy,fragrant fields, with a soft breeze and fresh air; no naps on a soft turf, no blue sky overhead with the hot sun streaming down, no gentle tussles with each other or territory wars, no free sexual activity, and no unobserved, protective, natural birth under a shady tree in small glen. IN OTHER WORDS-NO FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
The metal turnstile from which the cows were milked turned at just the right rate and was reminiscent of a turnstile in pictures after one of the wars on which they kept the prison help in that fascist country for doing a necessary task over and over. The bars through which the cows ate reminded me of the prisoner camps where folks were held like cattle and reached through bars pleading for something, anything. ANYTHING!!
The only difference is that the cows are WELL FED because without that, they cannot supply the right amount of milk. They carry pedometers so that the managers can tell how much they walk so the milk supply is not diminished. THE COWS' ABILITY TO PRODUCE MILK IS BOTH THEIR SALVATION AND THEIR ULTIMATE HELL!!!!!!!!!!! The COWS HAVE NO CHOICE IN THEIR LIVES. THEY ARE SLAVES.
SO, SAY YOU, WHAT HAS THIS TO DO WITH ECONOMICS. RIGHT!!!!! Everything!!! because that dairy is certainly an economic success and producing supplies for everyone EQUALLY BY EQUAL PRODUCTION, COST EFFICIENCIES, EQUAL QUALITY OF MILK, CONTROLLED FOOD, CONTROLLED BIRTH, AND CONSISTENT DISTRIBUTION OF GOODS. ALL FACTORS PRIZED IN ECONOMICS. Good factors but at what cost for the living critters???????
WHAT THEN IS THE LOSS????????? FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!! AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT every living creature SUFFERS UNDER THAT LOSS. Some adapt better than others--dogs, cats and various other pets, some bugs, and some big farm animals.
But you know it's a funny thing that even the bovine family look to life on the other side of the fence. When I was very young, after the deep depression years, my Dad thought he'd become a "Gentleman" farmer which lasted a couple of years. He took in a dozen cows and one large bull whom he named "Jay" (those who've known me long--this is true-"Jay"!). Now, "Jay" had a lot to do to service all these cows and make baby calves. Without the freedom of options SUFFERED BY THE COWS IN THE MODERN DAIRY, Jay the bull would never have HAD THE CHANCE TO jump the fence between my Dad's farm and the dairy next door. That DAIRY had hundreds of cows and "JAY" obviously FELT he'd FOUND ORGY-VILLE UNLIMITED. "JAY" NOT LEAPING OUR FENCE INTO THAT LA LA LAND also would not have led my Dad to hop in the old car and get all the dairy hands NEXT DOOR to round up "Jay" (who was a very big Bull), and put him in front of Dad's car. Dad blew his horn to start "JAY" RUNNING AND HEADED HIM ONTO the empty two lane road, blowing his horn constantly as THE ONLY WAY TO GET THIS BIG CRITTER HOME WITHOUT HELP. HE KEPT IT UP until "JAY" came to our fence and took a ballerina-like leap over it as Dad continued up the long adjacent drive, honking all the way. Although you might feel "JAY" NOT DOING THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A BLESSING and my Dad plus this blogger might agree BUT:
IT ALSO WOULD NOT HAVE PROVIDED ONE AMAZED AND AMUSED LITTLE GIRL WITH THE LAUGH OF A LIFETIME OR MADE HER DAD A HERO WHO BESTED A BULL!!!!!!!!!!!
The point being that we often forget in the name of efficiency, order, well-being, and equality that often the need to alleviate suffering of one kind leads to suffering of another kind. Do these cows REGRET the LOSS OF THEIR FREEDOM???????????Perhaps not. Many of them were born into captivity and have never known anything else. Does that mean if they were exposed to a natural form of life, they would chose what they left. Perhaps. But some would chose to be free!!!!!!!!!Cows have pretty individualistic personalities as this blogger learned in that short span of learning to milk them. Some are docile and some high spirited with a tough kick.
The point is that the COWS IN THAT DAIRY ARE LIVING IN A SOCIALIST STATE WITH NO FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT, LET ALONE whatever CONTROL they can choose to have OVER THEIR OWN ACTIONS, REACTIONS OR INTERACTIONS. "JAY" MIGHT HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY THERE WITH ALL THE FEMALE COMPANIONSHIP IF..........BIG IF.........HE WAS ALLOWED THE FREEDOM TO MATE whenever and with whomever he desired!!!!!!!
BUT HE WOULDN'T BE ALLOWED THAT FREEDOM UNTIL THE 'STATE' or DAIRY OWNERS deemed it was time for a cow to calf. "JAY" JUMPED OVER THAT DAIRY FENCE AFTER HE BUSTED OUT OF A PEN DAD PUT HIM INTO. HE KICKED IT TO PIECES. That kind of frustration came from the loss of freedom. Of course, no freedom is absolute and BULLS can't run in the streets anymore except in PAMPLONA, Spain, AND JUST FOR ONE DAY A YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!
FREEDOM THEN IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF EVERY CREATURE'S LIFE AND MOST IMPORTANT TO THE HUMAN SPECIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO, IF YOU WONDER WHY COMMUNISM COMES UP AS A MISERABLE FAILURE WHERE-EVER IT'S TRIED--LOOK TO FREEDOM. ALL CREATURES LARGE AND SMALL REQUIRE A MEASURE OF FREEDOM FOR WELL BEING. What they don't advertise at that COW GULAG is how long these cows ACTUALLY produce and live and this blogger can guess why. Because OWNERS WHO ARE constantly IN THE BUSINESS OF reproducing cows, FIND COW LIFE cheap. They no longer need to worry about longevity.
MY QUESTION TO THE LADIES WHOM PRESIDENT OBAMA IS COURTING WITH THE SPECTER OF FREE BIRTH CONTROL MEASURES???????????WILL YOU TRADE YOUR FREEDOM TO CHOOSE BIRTH WHENEVER AND WHEREVER YOU WANT IT TO HAPPEN FOR A HAND FULL OF FREE PILLS. BECAUSE THERE IS NO FREE RIDE!!!!!!!!!!You take the handout, you become dependent upon it, and you become the VICTIM of any NEW BIRTH MEASURE THE GOVERNMENT CHOOSES AS THE RIGHT METHOD OF HAVING BABIES AND DOING BUSINESS.
THAT MECHANIZED DAIRY FARM IS THE PERFECT IMAGE OF A MECHANIZED GOVERNMENT THAT IS TOTALLY POSSIBLE IN THIS TECHNOLOGICAL AGE!!!!!!!!! Our technological revolution has become a useful tool in the TOTALITARIAN loss of freedom BY COMMUNISTS and the MECHANIZATION OF THE MASSES!!!!!!!!!!! Will SOCIALISM PUT YOU ON A TREADMILL with a LOSS OF CHOICE, A LOSS OF PERSONAL FREEDOM, AND A NEW FORM OF SLAVERY CONDUCTED THROUGH A GOVERNMENTAL COMMUNIST PHILOSOPHY COINED IN THE MIDDLE AGES.
Make no mistake SLAVERY WAS PREVALENT UNDER THE VERY FIRST, FLEDGLING COMMUNIST GOVERNMENTS AND the change today is merely in terms of WORDS. IT IS STILL A FORM OF SLAVERY FOR THE MASSES (a word Communism ONCE used but has abandoned because it denoted slavery for the main population) while the ELITE LIVE JUST LIKE THE RICH PEOPLE THEY CONDEMN. POWER IS THE KEY HERE INSTEAD OF MONEY BUT MONEY FOLLOWS POWER!!!!!!!!!!!
This blogger then is asking a real and vital question BY COMPARING the ILLUSTRATION OF A COW'S "SOCIALISTIC" STATE with a SOCIALIST STATE BEING OFFERED BY THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION.
IS A LOSS OF FREEDOM WHAT YOU REALLY WANT???????????
DO YOU want To be totally controlled, follow procedures in an occupation chosen for you, TOTALLY cared for BUT told WHAT AND WHEN to produce GOODS OR BABIES, AND how to deliver? ARE YOU WILLING to follow all RULES without REAL dissent (not phony public drama by the Socialists) thereby GIVING UP ALL FREEDOM OF CHOICE????????? If that is what you want then you have already chosen your president.
BUT IF THAT IS NOT WHAT YOU WANT THEN WHEN FOLKS SAY THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR LIFETIME---LISTEN UP!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS BLOGGER TOLD YOU IN THE LAST BLOG THAT SHE BELIEVES IN THE AMERICAN DREAM AND THAT DREAM CAN LAST AS LONG AS FREEDOM IN AMERICA LASTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Freedom is the basis of all the good that America has brought to the world as well as its inventiveness, production, ingenuity and determination for right doing.
REMEMBER THE COWS' SOCIALISTIC LIFE AND THEIR LOSS OF FREEDOM IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO CHOICE! WHEN YOU VOTE IN NOVEMBER 2012 YOU CAN CHOSE NOT TO LOSE YOUR FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers, Connie
