I know lot will dismiss the message because they don't like the messenger, but Bill Maher makes good points here. It's not just exotic animal markets over in China that are causing outbreaks. Factory farming is the genesis of many diseases that eventually transfer over to infecting humans (swine flu, for instance). And the abuse of antibiotics in the meat industry is leading to the rise of antibiotic-resistant strains that will some day render all of our antibiotics useless. Basically, we are fucking ourselves over so we can eat wings and cheeseburgers.
