The article states that these horrendous, disgusting infractions of health regulations have been documented out for at least the previous year, but given their severity, I’d imagine it’s always been this way at Boar’s Head production facilities.
I’m going to cook my deli meats from now on, no matter where they come from.
It’s unclear whether Boar’s Head will face any penalties by the USDA for the repeat issues.
We’ll waffle on penalties for Boar’s Head but immediately shut down a kid selling homemade ice cream.
What a fucked up world we live in.
To be fair, that kid was trying to raise money for a good cause and we don’t want anything good to happen ever. /s
You know, the longer we live, the more people realize that in a CAPITAL based society, the people with the CAPITAL make the rules. And if they decided “no, we DON’T have to pay the fines that poors have to” then… That’s basically become all that happens.
“hey you did an illegal and/or a fine-able offence(the fines for which were determined at a time that doesn’t reflect modern profits for companies) but since we are being told you’re have lots of money, go ahead and keep doing it but pinky promise you’ll change eventually”
Just enough of a protest to make the unimportant people think you’ve done something, but not enough to do anything of substance.
And I honestly wonder just how long it will be before “the poors” and “the unimportant people” will have enough and decide to punish companies and their leaders themselves.
