Wallace and one other reading

-Using the David Foster Wallace reading, "Consider the Lobster," do people as a culture and/or as independent thinkers have a moral obligation to consider the way animals are treated in our food system? Why or why not?

-Even though most average people do not directly cause any harm to animals, should they feel at all responsible for supporting an industry that does? - Is it morally okay to eat animals knowing it is not, as Wallace notes, necessary for our survival? -We know from the readings that animals are abused during the process of being harvested, why is that a problem? Why should a person care? Or, why not?
