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.

These commies literally want to starve out the population with their pseudo rules and regulations.

Every single gov’t committee should be held on a hook by We The People.

We have animals running the gov’t currently. Trump might be the only slice of sanity left in DC.

More pork! More pork!

And not the kind delivered from legislative bodies. Real swine, on the hoof. Sausage, ham, ribs, and bacon.

Make sure the price of pork keeps up with the market demand for it in Palestine.

“So, ONLY THE RICH WILL AFFORD TO EAT IT!”

Why not? That’s been the norm in “socialist” countries, where 99% of the people are equally poor and the 1% leftist elites in power have all the money, luxury goods, and expensive foods for themselves.

Pandering to the bovine electorate. Someone needs to tell him that cows can’t vote.

Every communist dreams of a command economy. The State knows best what you should eat, what you should drive, where you should go, what you should say, what you should think. Yang isn’t even original.

‘That is their plan for everything.’
Yes, when Hillary was a candidate, she told the coal miners that their jobs will end when she was elected. She told them to ‘code’.

Why doesn't he just recite the lyrics to Gilligans Island (with a few minor mods) as his campaign slogan.

"No guns, no meat, no motorcars, not a single luxury...."
