Not a terrible example, but I think the difference is that we, as a society, sweep the issue of animal suffering under the rug. Most Americans are horrified if someone mistreats a dog, but don't bat an eye at the treatment of cows and pigs that end up on their plate. And a lot of effort is expended to keep that disconnect in place. I recall The Hamburgler stealing hamburgers off of the trees where they were growing in McDonalds commercials. Not to mention government subsidies that bring down the price of meat. So, ultimately, I think it IS a simple solution, we just need to stop actively working against it.
