I can't read the link because I've reached my limit for complimentary stories even though this is the first time I've ever even visited this website, to my knowledge.

But if we're going to genetically modify the livestock, why don't we turn their brains into figurative vegetables so that they don't know or care that their living conditions are terrible?
