Without going into too much detail, Rice backs up the standard 'unethical treatment of animals' bit with more human problems like disease and budget (carnivores apparently spend 30% more at the grocer's) along with more widespread issues like heightened health insurance and economic overhead involved in land and deed regulations (tax breaks for cattle ranchers).
