Gross...I see horses created for transportation not food, we have cows and we used to have bison for that. Although I’m not sure how long beef will be affordable if the BLM and Zero have their way.

Every ranch that’s sold and every farm denied water depletes the food supply. And with GM seeds, even what is grown to guarantee a bigger harvest is less healthy.

Too bad O doesn’t focus on Mooch’s appetite for caviar, lobster, and anything that costs more than $20 a pound. Now that would be cutting back on expenses.

The problem with the wild horses is that there is nothing to check their population growth, no natural predators in the wild. It was originally thought that the excess mustangs could be rounded up and then put up for adoption. This isn’t really happening. My wife has two horses and pasturage for at least two more, problem with wild horses is that they are wild. It takes almost a professional trainer to condition them and train them to take a saddle and ride. Many people show up at these adoptions without a clue what it takes to care, raise, feed, etc. a horse. For those people who do know about horses, have the land and resources to support adopted mustangs, there are simply too many horses to be adopted.

“Every ranch that’s sold and every farm denied water depletes the food supply. And with GM seeds, even what is grown to guarantee a bigger harvest is less healthy.”

A move to nationalize the food industry? Make food scarce
or unavailable trough regulation. Pass laws that make
it illegal to grow your own. Blame high prices and food
shortages on the private sector and take over.
It’s the socialist way.

this overproduction of horses = dogfood if we can’t see to eating it ourselves. although the time may come when we will eat horse meat readily.
