5. Page 201: "A government health official . . . compared the sanitary conditions in a modern feedlot with those in a crowded European city during the Middle Ages, when people dumped their chamber pots out the window, raw sewage ran in the streets, and epidemics raged." What is the point of making this comparison between conditions in cattle feedlots in the 21st century and the living conditions in crowded cities during the Middle Ages?
