"Plant Based Diet" as a Different Way of Framing It

While I think individual rights are paramount, I also think they must be balanced against the the responsibility to the health/well-being of the whole.

Yeah, my view is that it's not even necessarily about individual rights, but about top-down political distortion of the food market. If you look at all the subsidies, government-issue special privileges, price supports, intellectual property protections, etc. that are afforded big agribusiness, it's easy to conclude that the current system is manifestly not the result of what consumers want. It's actually what big business and government want, and if anybody's rights are being violated it's those who want clean, healthy food.
