factory farming is wrong, but it might be an evil that makes our lives more easy and convenient, so we embrace it. sure, they abuse animals and make their short existence hellish and cruel, but it is cheaper than raising meat ethically, so why not? sure, their are a lot of health concerns both to the animals and to the humans who will eventually consume the meat in the form of antibiotic resistance, infected and tainted meat, but it is cheaper than the alternative. sure, it contributes to climate change through the use of massive manure pools that decay and release methane, as well as the high ammounts of stresses it puns on animals who are confined such as veal, and to a lesser degree, cows and chickens. we cut off the beaks of chickens and the tails of cows because they are packed in so tightly of cource they would fight.  but hey, as long as it is cheaper than traditional souses of meat, such as hunting or non- factory farming. the reasons this system is in place is because it is cheep. economics over ethics, because our system encourages those who would just do the minimum, who care about profit first and everything else second. there are tons of other problems with factory farming as well, such as the runoff  from these sites which directly contaminates local groundwater tables, but hey, as long as it supply's us cheep meat.
