Budget cuts

Oooooooooh this whole thing.  The problem with this post-escorting budget is that I can't afford anything.  But what really irritates me is that I can't afford to live as ethically as I'd like.  I can't afford eggs that come from happy chickens.  I can only afford eggs that come from tortured chickens with broken legs and amputated beaks.  I can only afford meat of animals tethered to a hundred other animals, also with broken legs.  I can only afford cleaning and beauty products that will filter poison into lakes, causing fish to be born without fins, and halt oil production in muskrat fur.  At least I can still walk everywhere, thanks to the pink parka.  I feel very badly about all this.
