With this she developed a master’s plan to design a whole new system to send the cows through an obstacle course parse, to keep them under as little stress as possible as they were being dipped into the water.

The inhabitants of the cities were growing, the crops were failing, and there was no proper hygiene available. These factors made the population more vulnerable to disease (In Encyclopedia of World Trade From Ancient Times to the Present,
Americans were appalled by the truth in their meat products, including how dead rats were ground together and sold as sausage, and how guts were packaged and sold as “potted ham.” When President Theodore Roosevelt read it, he was disgusted, among with other U.S citizens. This sent America into the rush to pass the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906, which provided federal inspection of meat products in the United States. This also started the Meat Inspection Act, which required the United States Department of Agriculture to inspect all of the animals raised in order to be slaughtered and sold for people to eat.

The camera crew takes the audience on a journey to each of the food monopolies and speaks with their workers about their conditions as well as the animals they handle. This gives the audience a first-hand view at what is being done in the companies and shows the inhumane actions taken toward the animals. It is apparent that the workers resent the iron grip that the companies have over them by the tone of their voices and the first man that was interviewed admitted to wishing that the world could see what they really do.
