		<description>This one tears at my heart. I could vote for what my brain wants, or I could vote for what my heart wants. Yes, animals are different then humans. But the cages they are shoved in and more are just plain wrong. 

What my head says: Our economy can&#039;t handle anymore job cuts or money losses, and the loss of our egg farms is a huge one. In California we don&#039;t have any (maybe a tiny few) veal farms, and there aren&#039;t many pig farms either. This is a very poorly written proposition and realistically only applies to chickens in CA. This would definitely hurt our economy ... therefore no bueno.

My heart: I&#039;ve had a Hen as a pet (yes-i&#039;m odd-shush). If people say that chickens don&#039;t have emotions or don&#039;t really realize what is going on, then you have no idea the brains those suckers have.For example: Our hen used to peck at our glass door,until we would slowly open it and she would walk her way into the living room,progress towards the chair,jump up on the chair, and then be content watching t.v. with the family. If we kept her outside, she would complain and would find a way to get herself inside. Example 2: Every night, a quarter to 6, Henny Penny would sit and wait for her delivery of food with the dogs ... she would take her pieces in her beak and take them away from the dogs, then proceed to eat. Example 3: when the family is outside eating dinner, henny penny comes over and jumps on someones shoulder. She then proceeds to except her nightly scratchies and falls asleep.She just wanted to be a part of the party.

So trust me, they notice.They care,they hurt,and they have feelings.

Therefore, I know i won&#039;t be able to make up my mind till i walk up to the booth to vote, darn head and heart not agreeing!</description>

		<description>Actually I think the animals also deserve daily massages and weekly pedicures.  And have you seen the small space a corn stalk is given.  Talk about cruelty.

Let&#039;s ask the farmers what they think, the ones who see the animals every day.  If anyone should feel sorry for animals it should be them.  Newsflash:  they don&#039;t.  It&#039;s food

		<description>I voted no as well. I didn&#039;t like the economic outcome, and I don&#039;t like more beaureaucratic restrictions on industry that are unnecessary.</description>
