    Maine’s proposal for a first-in-the-nation “right to food” constitutional amendment has sown discord. Supporters want residents to have the right to grow food and raise livestock. Opponents say the amendment could threaten food safety and animal welfare.http://apne.ws/hgiZEIo

        Corporate farms are often much worse than private farms. Small family farms typically take great pride in their livestock although there are always exceptions.

        my small rural city has an ordinance against roosters. Chickens fine. A ban on roosters? I'm all for it. Not everybody in even a small rural city wants to be woken up by roosters at the crack of dawn.

        Remember when these same people criticized the Chinese for raising and living close quarter with livestock and that it probably caused the spread of disease... Like Covid.pic.twitter.com/8AVlE3vbeA

        Life,Liberty, and property were the Lockeian principles. Doesn’t that imply a basic human right to nourishment?

        You know why the ultra rich are buying farmland? Because if you control the food supply, you control the people. “Work for us, we will pay you and feed your family”

        I love Portland & South Portland. So progressive. Please, South Portlanders, re-elect our son, @MishaPrideSPoME, to the city council. He works really hard & has been a dandy mayor.

        emphasis should be placed on the positive right to food—that is, everyone has the right to sustenance, and the state has the obligation to fulfill that right when people can’t provide for themselves
