If I understand you correctly, your argument for eating meat is so that Mexican farmers don't suffer producing plants?! I'm really sorry to hear that you don't have any local farmer's markets where you can buy healthy fresh produce. I think I've made my point clear on survivalist decisions vs conscious decision making in our abundant era. The bottom line is, we know that we can live full healthy lives without exploiting animals, to still chose to do so because we can is not rational. Fine, want an answer on GM meat then please take my previous answer: It's fine as long as no one gets hurt. Simple. "Hey, I'll give you money if you let me shoot this deer so that you can save the deer." Replace deer with the name of any loved one and you'll see the ridiculousness of the idea of using killing to stop extinction. I find even hard to believe that I have to spell this out to you. Obviously we value life VERY differently.
