Not only are you correct, but:

There are huge areas of land in the world that will support cattle, but are not suitable for cultivation. So food of any kind will become more costly.

Add to that the insane bio fuel scam which has disrupted the grain markets and we are headed for food prices that will make life even more difficult for everyone, especially the poor.

I could just imagine the cost of a sirloin on the black market, and the newly caused corruption. They would either tax the farmers to death, or outlaw raising beef and pork altogether. Idiots didn’t learn anything from prohibition.
