The small text reads:

According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, animal research has helped extend our lifespans by 23.5 years. Of course, how you choose to spend those extra years is up to you.

    Why did I post this?

    1. It’s funny
    2. I have some sympathy for animal rights groups
    3. But not too much sympathy

    They also have other posters:

    you can use your 23.5 extra years accruing heart disease from the flesh you eat, and then dying anyways. or maybe you can spend those 23.5 years living in an environment that is polluted with animal waste from factory farms, trying to come up with a way to get more water because currently half of america’s water goes to the animals that “live” on these farms. and then.. oh maybe.. you could come up with some other way to test things on “lower” life forms than yourself in this primitive world with no technology in existence. hm.
