Ever occur to you why some of us can be this much concerned with animals suffering? Because government is not. Why not? Animals don't vote.

Ever occur to you why some of us can be this much concerned

Summary

This quote suggests that some people are more concerned about the suffering of animals due to a perceived lack of attention from the government. It implies that governments prioritize issues that directly affect humans because people have the power to vote and influence political decisions. The explanation highlights a possible reason behind the passion some individuals feel towards animal welfare, as animals do not have a voice or voting power in governmental systems, making them more vulnerable to neglect.
