Well, this turned out all for the best now, didn’t it? I’ve been b*tchin’ about this situation for a very long time.
Looks like thanks to a (D) we get the usual “law of unintended consequences” along with ANY legislation they ram through, and now we’ve got an (R) calling farmers “selfish” for not lying down and just taking this illegal search and seizure ploy?
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; the day they come to my farm and demand to “tag” my laying hens “for the children” is Butchering Day!
There’s plenty of ways to make money on a farm. However, now that they have a foot in the door, how long before they start to legislate the crops I can and cannot grow? Will they allow me to produce a fresh, ripe tomato to sell locally, or will I be thrown in jail for that because they want all of our food coming from foreign sources?
Good Lord, what a mess. I’m usually a very optimistic person, love my country to the n-th degree...but it’s getting tougher with each passing year to put up with this nonsense!
