SWA#9


SWA#9

                The central claim that Robbins argues is that we should not be feeding livestock so much antibiotics. The reason is that we are overfeeding livestock which creates bacteria strains that build up an immunity to a certain antibiotic thus becoming unaffected by the antibiotic. This leads to diseases that can’t be cured by current medicine. Robbins assumption is that ultimately it is more important that we do not create diseases rather than eliminate any chance of bacteria being in our meat.
