Institutional Meat Industry Index

The meat industry analogical index is an important social indicator because human society is meat based. The index works by examining both society and the meat industry and generates a number indicating how similar the two are in meat production. Because the meat industry and society are constantly in development, and often co-development, the number simply serves to indicate the level of institutional and industrial carnivorousness. In other words it attempts to quantify over time how closely human society feeds on itself as meat. This is an important indicator in preventing the reapplication of animal husbandry to eugenics, as well as the implementation of a rigid disciplinary system of standards that produce various grades. No distinction is made in terms of meat used for consumption as food or meat-based power.
