FFN Chapter 7
-Cogs In the Great Machine is a pretty ominous title.  In these chapters that center around how the animal becomes part of our food supply, Schlosser uses words like produce, process, render, design, etc.  What result is derived from this type of diction?
-Politics and business are brought back to the forefront in Ch. 7, but in a different style than earlier (Ch. 2) in the book.  What has changed about the symbolic qualities that Schlosser gives them?
-Why does Schlosser spend so much time on labor practices?  What is his purpose in giving the working class symbolic value?
-The correlation vs. causation argument comes up again at the end of Ch. 7.  How does Schlosser use it this time, and is it valid?

FFN Chapter 6

-How does Hank function symbolically when juxtaposed against the beef companies in the first sections of Ch. 6?
-How does the emphasis on the market share that the beef and chicken producers control affect the argument about price and fairness?  What is the implication that Schlosser makes indirectly, and why does he stop short of direct accusation?
-How does Schlosser employ cause and effect in his argument, especially specific to the chicken industry but present throughout much of the book?
-Is Schlosser guilty of overuse of the "causation vs. correlation" fallacy of argument?
-How does the structure of the final section affect the overall tone of the chapter?  What is the purpose of bringing the chapter about companies/industries back full circle to an individual person's story?
