Yes. In the 80s my girlfriend was vegan, my best friend a political activist. After my fridge once again being purged of animal products or anything that came from one of many unapproved nations I really had to put my foot down. I was a student nurse and affording such a conscience was beyond my meagre means. These days I can afford to be much more moral, but there is always a limit.
If we're going to get taken over by investors from a global super power, the US is probably preferable to China. But then again, Trump. ****it, can't we just stick with the Swiss?
