What you DON'T know can hurt--even kill and cause world wide epidemics.
USA pays $152 billion a year on food-borne illnesses: "Government estimates that there are 76 million food-related illnesses a year, 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths" --yearly in USA.

Please mandate INSTALLED cameras in farm factories ensuring quality control to protect the welfare of the public safety against food-borne illnesses due to chemical and antibiotic abuse dangerous to the public; also to prevent the use of downer livestock (too sick to get up)--or already dead animals--in the human food supply (if they cut up an already deceased animal you won't be able to tell it was already dead for over a day or more!).
The buying public has a right to know and quality control is assured this way (just like in restaurants).
Antibiotic abuse: 50% of all raw meat is infected with MRSA, which is highly contagious just by handling it as in meat preparation.

Antibiotic abuse causes C diff diarrhea: In farm factories it has reached superbug status. Clostridium difficile diarrhea infection causes colitis, bowel rupture and death: Research shows 40% of all raw meat sold in supermarkets is infected with this bacteria - but resistant to all antibiotics (superbug C. diff infection), highly contagious by handling the raw meat.

PS: "The cost to hospitalize and treat people with antibiotics for superbug infections is over 30 billion dollars a year" (this is an old figure) http://medhealthlife.com/index.php/pharmacology/21-antibiotic-drug-resistance-constant-content
