YANG: I’ll Cut Down On Meat Consumption By Making It Expensive
GP ^ | 09/20/2019 | Joseph Curl

With all the problems in the world, Democratic presidential candidates are focusing on — meat.

During a climate change forum hosted by MSNBC on Thursday, longshot candidate Andrew Yang was asked by an audience member about “what policy adjustments” he’d make to “curb expansion and reduce the environmental impact of the cattle industry” in order to “reduce demand.”

“Cattle is very energy-consuming and energy-expensive. And if you project forward on what we would need to do to reduce emissions, you would want to modify Americans’ diets over time,” Yang said.

So in 2050, Yang envisions his policies having eliminating personal automobiles and crippling the cattle industry. So I guess our children and grandchildren can look forward to walking to a restaurant to get a kale burger. What a vision!

The liberal elite will continue to enjoy their hamburgers and steaks. We can’t.

They want to force us to change our lifestyles so they won’t have to change theirs.

That’s what the climate change scam is all about.

Comrade Yang wants us to eat what the government tells us to eat to help fight their scam climate change.

It's still a free country so I will continue to raise Angus beef cattle on my farm and consume some their meat on occasion.

The good thing is my cows are vegans. They eat green grass and dead grass (hay) to produce their meat.

Seems to me, they should be given credit for that. :-)

Stop telling people on food stamps not to eat steaks and Maine lobsters.

I’m just as tired of the conservative as well the leftist food police.

These guys want to micromanage people’s lives to serve their ideological agendas.

This is where totalitarian birds of a feather truly flock together.

These idiots must think their concrete prisons (urban hellhole cities) is where everyone live under their direct control.

And I'm sure you will hear from a lot of Texas cattle ranchers too. More than likely they will be armed.

Good luck Ying Yang.

‘They won’t be satisfied until we all are equally poor.’

this is the very essence of social justice, and the organizations pushing it, whether secular or religious...
