食品公司 Food, Inc. Movie Script

杰瑞发布于2022-11-07

The current method of raw food production is largely a response to the growth of the fast food industry since the 1950s. The production of food overall has more drastically changed since that time than the several thousand years prior. Controlled primarily by a handful of multinational corporations, the global food production business - with an emphasis on the business - has as its unwritten goals production of large quantities of food at low direct inputs (most often subsidized) resulting in enormous profits, which in turn results in greater control of the global supply of food sources within these few companies. Health and safety (of the food itself, of the animals produced themselves, of the workers on the assembly lines, and of the consumers actually eating the food) are often overlooked by the companies, and are often overlooked by government in an effort to provide cheap food regardless of these negative consequences. 目前的生食生产方法在很大程度上是对20世纪50年代以来快餐业增长的回应。自那时以来,食品生产的总体变化比几千年前更为剧烈。主要由少数几家跨国公司控制的全球食品生产业务——重点是该业务——将以低直接投入(通常是补贴)生产大量食品作为其不成文的目标,从而带来巨大的利润,这反过来导致对这几家公司内全球食品供应的更大控制。健康和安全(食品本身、自己生产的动物、流水线上的工人以及实际食用食品的消费者的健康和安全)常常被公司忽视,而政府为了提供廉价食品而忽视了这些负面后果。

NAFTA led to a flooding of the Mexican market with cheap American corn.
It's put more than a million and a half Mexican farmers out of work.
They couldn't compete with this cheap corn coming from America.
So what happens to those million and a half Mexican farmers?
Meat packers like IBP, National Beef and Monfort began actively recruiting in Mexico.
Companies advertised on the radio and in newspapers.
IBP set up a bus service in Mexico to bring workers into the United States.
For years the government turned a blind eye to the recruitment of immigrants by the meat-packing industry.
But now, when there's an anti-immigrant movement, they're cracking down all of a sudden, but they're not cracking down on these companies.
The government's cracking down on the workers.
Immigration agents are arresting Smithfield workers at this trailer park.
This is an agreement between Smithfield and Immigrations authorities.
They get rid of 15 workers per day, but you don't see any massive raids.
That way it doesn't affect the production line.
- Sir, we are trying-- - She asked me a question.
She is asking us questions, not you.
I don't see anybody arresting no Smithfield managers.
Nobody in the plant that had anything to do with the fact that those workers were hired is being arrested.
What we see today is workers who were producing for this company and working hard-- those are the people who get arrested.
We want to pay the cheapest price for our food.
We don't understand that that comes at a price.
These workers, they've been here for 10, 15 years processing your bacon, your holiday ham and now they're getting picked up like they're criminals.
And these companies are making billions of dollars.
Is cheapness everything that there is?
Who wants to buy the cheapest car?
