Joe tells meat packers they are giving America a raw deal. Says they have cut out competition.

Right now they are couching it, but they want to destroy the beef industry.

The big Vegan movement is coming from the same groups pushing global warming, BLM, CRT, and transgender benders.

At least that’s my take on it.

Ashes for Ash Wednesday. It is traditional for many Christians to have the sign of the cross marked on their foreheads for this holy day.

Makes sense, eliminate fuels, meats, guns, it’s all in their plan.

Weren’t these meat packing employees called essential workers and worked day and night to ensure our food industry didn’t go tits up during the early China flu days? Now they’re greedy bastards?

High meat prices are just fine with the leftists. They want it so expensive nobody can afford to eat it. We are supposed to eat soylent instead because of global warming. But they cannot seen as causing it. So they blame Big Meat.

Same thing with gas prices. They are just fine with it going through the roof and blame it on Putin. They will never lift a finger to bring it down.

I cannot escape the conclusion that all of this, covid, Putin, inflation, CRT is part of the plan, and I have to wonder what is coming next.

Precisely correct. My big brother used to work as a meat packer during the day and a government inspector (he passed the test and had all the qualifications, but didn't get enough hours) during the evening. There were four such facilities in a mid-sized midwestern city.

Now, there is only one and it is owned by a big conglomerate for the reasons that you mentioned.

Good post—almost every industry with major federal regulation has been forced to consolidate to cover the costs of compliance.

I have a little experience in this. A good friend owns a small ranch. Has about 90-100 head of angus cattle. I help him with projects and keep his books. He has the meat processed locally at two different family-run slaughterhouses in Western PA.

One slaughterhouse owner said he wanted to move to a larger site about 5 years ago. Said the cost of regulation, certification, and compliance made it difficult at the time. Now after Gov't Covid lockdowns, although business is booming, he said its really impossible - they can't find the labor (local, not migrants) and land prices have gone through the roof. His processing schedule is booked a year in advance.

If the sock-puppet Biden wants a cause of high meat costs - - he should blame Fed.gov

We have slaughterhouses in most rural areas-they dispatch and process livestock for local ranchers/farmers as well as process and package game for hunters-most have meat markets attached where you can buy all types of grass fed, free range meat-even quail-there are two places less than 25- 30 miles of where I am-one has an entire small grocery store attached-everything is organic, fresh, non GMO...

That idiot Biden has no idea what he is talking about with his four meatpacking facilities crap-he has likely never been inside a meat market/grocery store-and the only cows he’s seen were in pastures when he was looking out the window of his limo as it was driving down the road to some ice cream shop...

Of course he know one-and she’s even a woman-so he’s going to nominate her for the supreme court-because he promised his handlers a Black woman...

Tell that to the big tech companies.

I fail to see how meatpacking plants caused the price of the gasoline I use to go up 50%. It’s actually higher than that in the last week.
