The Cheesecake Factory‚ I once believed that the establishment would be a bakery that primarily sold cheesecakes‚ sweets and such. Although‚ I’ve never heard much about the restaurant‚ or what it actually was other than people are familiar with the establishment and only comment on the cheesecakes. Yet‚ I had not known that that was the place I was dining in‚ I only believed under presumption of its name that we were going to eat at some other random place when I walked through the doors of the restaurant

Animal Cruelty on Factory Farms “This is horrible! I can’t even watch this!” Those were my immediate thoughts the first time my eyes were opened to the inhumane animal cruelty on factory farms. Factory farming enables mass production to supply the demands of today’s society but also enables the cruel treatment of animals. We need to end the cruelty and abuse that these animals have to endure at the factory farms because it causes loss to the business‚ reduces the quality of the product produced

The Pain of Factory Farming Even though 94% of Americans say that animals used in food production for humans deserve to live free from abuse and cruelty‚ 10 billion farm animals are in conditions that are lower than low‚ often leading to a painful death (Farm Animal). Animal rights refers to the philosophy that animals as a whole should maintain the right to live a life without human exploitation‚ suffering and hurting‚ and dying young.

On March 25‚ 1911 the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory went up in flames. The owners cowardly ran out of the building‚ telling no one there was a fire. The women who worked there became trapped‚ because the back entrance was locked‚ so many were forced to jump out windows or go down the faulty fire escape.

Another sign of this socialism is the entirely different status of the German worker in factories. The social honor of each working German is guaranteed by law.
