guaranteed FAKE news

that’s more than the entire cow is worth!

stupid stories like this are what makes us look like nuts sometimes.


Exactly! At current prices, a beef cow is worth about $1300 so a tax of 3X the value of the cow, would:

1) likely be considered an ‘unconstitutional taking of property’
2) destroy the beef industry
3) be opposed by many Democrat Senators from beef producing states

And I am not even taking up the dairy side.

Shush up with all that! I already set up an LLC to sell cow fart offsets to these ranchers and dairy farms...

“1) likely be considered an ‘unconstitutional taking of property’”

By who, DEMOCRAT judges who support the tax. Get real, man. The Constitution only applies to Republican judges, and only at times.
