Damn! meat must be cheap in Oregon! We are paying about the price you quoted for organic meat for feedlot beef - and the largest feedlot in the world is only about 35 miles from my house. You are probably right in saying that it is better under the circumstance you are describing - The prices I have seen for organic meat in this area is much higher. The point I was attempting to make is that the majority of the meat consumed in the US comes out of commercial cattle feeding operations and this meat has enjoyed (?) the benefits of science form conception to T-Bone steak. Most of the cows that produce the bulk of comercial meat have never even met a bull. I see nothing wrong with using whatever is available to provide an adequate food supply as long as it is safe. I've eaten organically grown meat - and heavy aged beef from the feedlots - I'll take the heavy aged beef.
