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.

I’ve been eating mostly venison for the past few years but I’m going to buy a nice juicy ribeye or two to eat while I ponder the totalitarian takeover of the democrat party.

They ride the private jets while telling the peons how much space we are taking up from Mother Earth.... They are praying to plants as if the plants are god.... and ya wonder ......?

They protected the snail in CA while the farmers’s crops died for lack of water... and no one told the epa to butt out... no one is telling nadler to butt out in his ridiculous witch hunt... they seem to be able to carry on and carry on .... and carry on... someone should put a stop to stupidity when it reaches others... when it is aimed to destroy others...

Like hell!

The Leftards are a bunch of control freaks.

They’ll tell us what kind of cars, toilets, light bulbs, food and houses we can have, how much power we can use and when.

They won’t be happy until the Inner Party favored few are living in gated communities with armed security and the “masses” are packed into grey concrete block high rises a la Bucharest, 1962; tucking into cabbage and pork fat if you’re lucky or Rio style garbage heap favelas, dining al fresco on rice and rats.

Glad he’s running on this. I’ll make your backyard barbeque so expensive you’ll have to limit them to July 4th. You go, Yang. Sushi for everyone.

This is the DNC. They don’t want to govern, they want to rule.

An excellent, perfect, pithy encapsulation of the Rats' objectives. This should be captured in an RNC campaign commercial next year.

Typical elitist Democrat policy: raising the price would make meat too costly for the poor and less available for the middle-class, but the elites would will still be able to afford it whenever they want it.

First it's Beto scaring everyone with a campaign promise that would have storm troopers invading our houses, in search of guns. And now Yang assures voters that they won't be able to afford their children and grand children growing up to have strong, healthy bodies.

Strong and fully developed descendants would be a privilege reserved for the entitled class who will be able to afford to properly feed their children.

Way to go, Yang. A Nazi who supports the development of a Master Race is sure to impress the little folk.

I wonder if the courts might rule: unusual taxation is a form of control. If the feds slap a $100 per box of ammo tax, can that be considered infringing on the 2nd amendment. Especially when the enemies of the 2nd amendment admit it.

If it gets to the Supreme Court, Soros will slip another briefcase full of cash to Roberts.

That’s part of the plan; Yang and his fellow travelers want most of us dead, the rest in chains.
