Well stated Oberon - your right - there is a balance.

On the Bernard Matthews Turkey Baseball incident - I looked it up - and that is exactly what it was - an incident - not the norm. That is what gets me on this discussion.... the only thing people can point to are the singular incidents in which people break the law (note that the people involved in the above incident were sentenced under the law to punishment). If these type of happenings were the standard in the industry, alot more people would be losing their jobs and facing legal actions - but the fact that they don't shows that these horrors are isolated incidents. Abysmal - but its not just the company that controls here - if abuse happens - it becomes a legal matter. That doesn't actually happen alot. Sure, some abuse goes uncaught - but to claim the entire industry is nothing but abusive, and then using isolated occurances to paint such a picture, is wrong.
