Exploitation

The world runs on it.  Eat or be eaten.  Is it morally right?  If you have a choice, and you know you are doing it, do you do it anyway?  Do you feel one way or another about it?  Do you TRY to tread lightly so fewer suffer?  Or do you contribute as possible in your thoughtless ways, regardless of how much blood was shed for your pleasure?  And I speak not only of people, but of all species.
