The Future

It is amazing to witness how far technology has evolved in the past thirty years.  My fear is that technology regarding science will spiral out of control.  My concerns are regarding the advancements in the food acceleration process.  For instance, large amounts of hormones are fed and injected into animals that we eat on a daily basis.  Poultry provide two food sources for us; we feed on the eggs they lay and the meat on their bodies.  Chickens lay several dozen eggs in several weeks.  Their life span is a total of forty five days after birth and end in slaughter houses.  These are inhumane for the animals but extremely dangerous to ingest.  In the next twenty years scientists across the world will create a super food.  The sixty to eighty years an average person has in their life span will decrease due to the genetically engineered chemicals and pesticides ingested.
