IMO, the fact that the pork industry paid for laws to be passed that allow zero local control of such quality-of-life destroying, environmental nuisances leaves VC little choice. Ugly laws let farmers negatively impact their neighbors with these filth factories, and ugly eminent domain laws may let one neighbor fight back. If anything, it's a case of pr*ck vs. pr*ck.
