This post has nothing to do with the book by Kurt Vonnegut or the subsequent award winning movie. My Measurable Management travels however took me yesterday to the John Morrell pork processing plant in Sioux Falls SD. I was knocked for six (a cricket term) to learn that they kill 20,000 hogs per day and fully process them so that supermarket ready packaged pork leaves the plant. Where do they get all those pigs from? There are clearly many more pigs than people in Eastern South Dakota and the surrounding states.
