Central Claim: America needs to revert back to small-scale farms instead of factory farms in order to make our food healthier and preventing more damage to the environment.

Reasons: The quality of the food produced has been reduced greatly, there have been sky rocketing numbers of contamination outbreaks and food recalls due to these outbreaks, and new diseases appearing.  There is also contamination of water sources near factory farms and the food produced by small farms is much healthier for humans than food grown at factory farms.

Values:  Healthy food for humans in America and less impact on the environment.

Unstated Assumption: Factory farms are bad for the people of America.
