Wow, this has all becoming a screaming mess. One side is trying to keep it going so people don’t riot, rebel, starve and die. The other side is trying to train wreck the entire economy of this country and subsequently other countries JUST to get political power. Talk about good vs. evil....

Should be interesting to see how the media chooses between Closing the Plants and Millions of Americans Starving to Death.

On the one hand, I want the food supply chain functioning.

On the other, I don’t want infected or exposed people processing my food.

How are they going to address the later?

Please keep track of all the Chinese (CP) owned/controlled corporations in America. Could come in handy later.

“ How are they going to address the later?”

It’s called “cooking it”.

Might be a little hard to keep the plants open if the workers are all sick. We’d have to put Americans to work in the plants. OMG

Betting 99% of city folk would puke if they saw the inside of one of those plants.

Right now, I’d go to my local butcher or if you live like I do in “fly over” country, there are local meat packing/processing operations where locals take their beef and pork to be processed for them. They always have a full meat counter.

You are probably right, but in elementary school in the 60’s in Los Angeles, we went to the Farmer John processing plant in Los Angeles. How things have changed.

Doesn’t it seem like that should be under some agencies purview somewhere?

I’m not one to wish for even more bureaucrats, but I’m trying to imagine during the cold war a bunch of soviet controlled corporations inside the U.S. somehow flying under the radar. Wouldn’t happen.

And have to pay more in salaries? Not going to happen.

We might have to build a few Wet Markets to keep up with the demand for meat.

OK, but how will they stay open if Juan and Juanita don’t show up to gut the chickens?

People have gone stupid insane over this hyped virus stuff. No doubt there might be some active virus on raw fresh meats, but I have NEVER eaten raw chicken or pork . . . oysters, yes, and seared rare tuna steak, and maybe an occasional medium rare steak, but never underdone chicken or pork.
