Ps- I know your type. You sit there and stuff your face at dinner parties while you mouth off and put everyone else a the table down. While you wifes shamefully pretend they're not with you. And then you sit there and sook when your wives walk out on you

in case you lost your atlas, singapore is a very small island in the tropics. there isn't any farmland. thats why they import nearly all foodstuffs. they also have a fresh water pipeline from malaysia. please think and consult a man before putting forward your brilliant solutions. this goes for replacing biofuels with solar energy too. shoosh, adults are talking.

Ps- why don't they just breed their own cows in Singapore, and then milk them? How hard could it be- just stick a male cow and a female cow together. Now wouldn't that be much easier?

It reminds me of the story about the Americans who spent millions of dollars developing a pen that would work in space, under zero gravity, and that could write upside down etc etc so it could be used on space flights. And then the Russians solved the same problem quickly and simply- they used pencils in outer space. Yes, that's right, plain old greylead pencils like you use in primary school

Poor cows. I'd hate to be a cow in Australia. Try telling the poor cows they don't work hard enough. If only the cows in Australia could hop on a plane, and fly to India, where they worship them, Im sure they'd all be lining up for airline tickets

Cows aren't the only bovines that are fed grain. Pretty much any bovine that is raised in a feedlot is going to be grain fed. More and more animals are being sent to feedlots because feedlots offer the best return for investment, they are more environmentally neutral (you don't get cows hooves trampling and eroding a large area of land), plus they offer better individual tracability and feedback to the owner of the beasts. If you want to see the extent of grain feeding, look up Wagyu Grain Fed Beef, its pretty much the highest priced beef you can buy. Its sold all over the world, especially to US and Asian countries. If the price of grain goes up, milk is not the only thing that will be affecetd.

People sure do act like sheep, just blindly following the crowd, who are also going the wrong way. Actually, I reckon people act more like marionettes. I quote this song, from Metallica (I think it's called symphony of destruction):

"Just like the pied piper
Led rats through the street,
They dance like marionettes,
Swaying to the symphony of destruction"
