I oppose any system which will not allow someone to do something for themselves and instead force them to rely on someone else. I don't hunt, but I appreciate the fact that if I refused to let anyone kill on my behalf I could go out and harvest all of my own meat and grow my own food.
I'm not sure I get the gist of your argument -- hunting is only useful for population control purposes and we should rely on killing domesticated animals for food? What do you suggest the people who don't have domesticated animals do? Buy corporate beef that's been pumped full of hormones for whatever price Monsanto and its customers care to charge?
We should be diversifying our food production capability in this country, not continuing to consolidate it. I view the growth of corporate megafarms and our reliance on just-in-time food delivery systems as a key vulnerability in this country.
Most of Michigan is made of bear. Outside of the southeast there is nothing but woods and bears. When I get up into Wisconsin and look across the lake, I see nothing but black bears teaming against the shore like ants on a strawberry gumdrop. That's when I am glad I'm in Wisconsin and not where the bares are.
