A Friendly Conversation: Exploring Omnivorous vs. Vegetarian Diet

[Monica]

I start from the assumption that we are always dealing with how the collective might be best adviced on how to perform as I assume we all know how to handle our personal lives and choices perfectly unless otherwise queried.

So i approach this from a point of view of social issues as laws/rules etc. And how, for example, vegetarian groups actually perform in politics and how they should perform in politics. My standing argument is that any large scale social change should only be attempted by either a group you know directly or yourself, anything larger than that is meaningless.

From that stand point, I seek to advice the abstract (the forum where I do not know all readers/posters) for example. I say try to reduce price of fruit / veggies and increase price of meat / meat products but decrease calorie cost overall more than increase even if availability is increased.

I in general try to avoid getting too up and personal about lofty social issues.

My take on this is reduce cost for fruit, veggie / healthy and increase cost for meat / unhealthy and increase availability of stores that sell proper food and decrease fast food and snack availability and go from there.

Ah, then your views now make more sense to me. Thank you for the clarification!
