Should Low-dose antibiotics be used to boost animal growth for profits?

Tweet

Low dose antibiotics are routinely used to boost growth of animals for purely financial benefits. Larger, fatter animals equate to greater profits. The ultimate price, of course, is that we end up getting a dose of antibiotics and other drugs in each and every steak and chicken wing. But an even lesser known issue is the problem with antibiotic laden manure from the "concentrated animal feeding factory" contaminating the rest of our food supply. These are all powerful reasons for choosing organically-raised, drug-free, grass-fed or pastured animal products instead. I wonder if you agree with me...any reasons?
