    The pigs are exploiting the other animals efforts for their own personal gain. The other animals are working 60 ours a week to build the windmill, and carry out other back-breaking labor, while all the pigs do is give orders.

    The pigs are also selling much needed food for their own profit, even though rations are getting scarce. To quiet any questioning of this practice, the pigs use the intimidation of growling dogs to ward off protests.

    The pigs also move into the farmhouse and sleep in beds, while the other animals must sleep outside in the barn in their stalls.
