title: A chicken in every pot: at what price?
abstract: The poultry industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the United States. "Big chicken," however, has created big problems. Consumers and the environment, as well as people who grow, catch, slaughter, and process chicken are all impacted by the practices and policies of the poultry industry. This paper sheds some light on serious problems caused by production practices that put profits above human dignity, food safety, and the environment and proposes some needed regulations and actions.
