      what do you mean by this specifically, are you talking about the way it’s just taken willy nilly, or how they won’t be as strong in the future?

        C) All of the above.

        I hope it will be considered insane that we pump livestock full of them as a preventative measure, rather than as a treatment, while also prescribing them for every little thing.

        When our current antibiotics are no longer effective at all, I hope that we’ll be able to find new ones and that we’ll be much more responsible with their use. I hope that people in the future will be as incredulous at our current use of them, as we are of using arsenic in makeup.
