It would be nice if we lived in a country where it was illegal to use animals for food, clothing, testing, etc. but we all know we're a long way from that. Now that we have a democratic administration in office, our voices are more likely to be heard. What do you think are reasonable laws that the government could pass?
I think the first thing we should do is raise the taxes on meat and dairy products, and end the subsidies. Most politicians are apathetic to the suffering of animals, but they cannot ignore climate change, and the strain on our natural resources. In turn the price of meat and dairy would go up, restaraunt menues would change, and consumers would have more incentive to purchase plant-based dishes.
