It is not the business of government to make men virtuous or religious, or to preserve the fool from the consequences of his own folly. Government should be repressive no further than is necessary to secure liberty by protecting the equal rights of each from aggression on the part of others, and the moment governmental prohibitions extend beyond this line they are in danger of defeating the very ends they are intended to serve.

Nope! No politics, no culture war, no generational crap. I just hate kale. My whole family does. And, we’ve tried it in a plethora of ways in the hope of finding one we could stomach. And no! Kale is green manure, not food!

A generation or more long question that Vegans refuse to answer – if veggies are so go good, why do they keep trying to make them taste and look like meat and why does Vegan food taste so horrible?
It makes no objective sense. It’s not like there’s not a plethora of damn fine, damn tasty and satisfying vegetarian foods available around the world. So why does Vegan food – and I mean specifically Vegan Food – so often turn out to be poor and disgusting mockeries of normal, omnivore cuisine. It seems to me the answer – never provided by the Vegans themselves – would be important for the bulk of society to know.
NOTE: I, myself consume on average just under 16 oz of red meat a week (far less in Summer, a bit more in Winter), just over that in poultry and seafood, and much more than that in well-prepared vegetables. So, I’m hardly a knee-jerk carnivore. 😛

Sadly, the above ad is fake. I would have adored it if it was an actual whimsical – or mocking if you’re of the flat-toothed dietary persuasion – but, alas and alack, neither the advertisement nor Crompton’s Beef Farm are real.
