Well, McD's gets all their stuff from third party suppliers and vendors, and as such, doesn't have total control over what exactly goes into their products. The best thing they can do to that end is be reactionary, and change suppliers if they get tainted stuff.
No, they can demand that their suppliers conform to certain standards (and make them prove it by having a third party check them), or they won't buy from them. The people selling them meat will comply because mcdonalds is such a massive market.
Yes, but that costs money. If there's one things corporations don't like, it's spending money.
The cost is really pretty negligible, it will probably come out to a cent or two per burger (since it would raise the cost of meat by a little, and even then the majority of the cost of a burger is labor).
That said, you are right, they don't want to spend the money even if it would prevent deaths.

Yeah, but even then, no inspector is perfect, and stuff will slip through the cracks as people quietly lower the quality to make more and more money for less and less effort/resources.
It's not perfect, but it would result in a lot less of (whatever they are trying to prevent), and since the producers would pay for the inspections themselves, there would actually be some guaranteed oversight compared to how much of a failure the government is in food inspection.
Yeah, it would be possible to fool them, but it would be a lot harder then it is now.

The thing that really made it for me were the people filming it continually making these noises as if he is revealing some sort of great truth.

It's called post-natal Euthanization, or murder, Rick. You know, the kind of thing you make people want to do to you?

What (I think) he's referring to is cases where the person in question did not set up end-of-life care plans, and the decision to pull the plug was made by someone who gained legal rights by default such as a spouse.

Pet clothing.

I mean, dogs didn't spend all this time evolving fur to keep them warm only for you to slap on a tacky jacket on them to do the exact same thing.

As much as I hate to defend it, because I honestly think most dogs would have more dignity if you just put them down rather than put those things on them, there are some situations where it's not a terrible idea. Smaller dogs in colder areas (or houses) can need them to keep from getting too cold.

... now, anything above like a toy or very small miniature... no. Not unless you shaved all its fur off first or something.

That I can understand (but it's still dubious most of the time since I doubt a little patch of thin cloth will keep the poor sod warm) to a certain part, heck even raincoats are good if you don't like the smell of wet dog (my roommates feet smell like wet dog when he takes a bath, horrible stuff), but putting on a jacket on one of those shaggy carpet kinds of dogs is just plain silly.

@ the ninja, indeed, those are nothing but furless rats in disguise.

Eh, the health issues most of them have are an argument against them. Their existence is abomination, held forth against the natural way by the perversions of man. Some of the seriously oversized dogs are like that too, actually.

But yeah, when normal house cat greater in size than full grown dog, something has gone wrong.

[...]putting on a jacket on one of those shaggy carpet kinds of dogs is just plain silly.
Yeah, that's just silly. Probably makes the dog uncomfortable as hell, too.
