Why I am a Vegan

[Nía]

I have a current coworker who used to work in a town where everyone worked at the slaughterhouse. He said you could only be on actual pig killing (throat slitting) duties for 3 months total, it was against the law to have someone do it any longer. Of course, they just had the illegal immigrants doing it because they had no choice.

Yes, that's sadly how it works in many places. I can only talk about Germany, but over there is a whole trafficking industry at work, just for illicit or semi-legal workers from Eastern Europe and other countries who either have no legal rights or no means to enforce them... No need to say they also have no possibility to get counselling or other mental health support once it gets too much - and it frequently does.
