The statement reads like a paean to small producers.

I’m not buying it.

Deep State intends to control the supply and distribution of food.

You’ll eat bugs and plant-based meat substitute, and be happy.

Create a shortage, perpetuate a shortage for political ends, wash, rinse, repeat.

"Transforming the Food System to Be Fairer.

There it is right there.!! The weasel word. I don't think they mean to make it "fairer" for the working middle class American.

Better hold on to your wallet, and find a place to put in a garden..

Our government is getting completly out of control.... :(

I worked over 40 years in the meat industry, most of it in cooperation with the USDA. They are W O R T H L E S S! One of the discussions I would have with inspectors was their relevance. “We protect the food system!” was the canned response from any and all personnel. My comeback was “and who gets sued for tainted product. You??” CYA paperwork and long naps in their offices seemed to be the MO.

Occasionally, we would get Detective Colombo with the white gloves to replace Deputy Fife and stupidity would ensue. “Yeah, you’re gonna have to shut down the whole plant because I found a dead bug in the warehouse.” The daily routine was crossing T’s and dotting i’s under the watchful eye of an inspector. This is the bane of the plant manager.

100%

This admin is blatantly attempting a pure communistic power/control maneuver, under the guise of equity. The verbiage utilized at the site is a unicorn disguised as a fix, totaly un-achievable. In order to even have this even pass a logic test, all peripheral influencers would have to be stable... i.e. reasonable fuel costs, farm equipment/parts availability, sound logistics/supply chains, funds/loan availability with optimistic ROIs.

None of the above is addressed, it’s theater... a conformity maneuver on society as a whole. Beginning of the end.

You may not question the Five Year Plan and the Ten Year Plan, comrade.

They are always correct and only insane conspiracy theorists claim otherwise!

There is nothing the government can’t screw up once it gets it’s grimy paws on it.

So what the natural result of this will be is more people than ever going hungry and facing privation.

That can’t be emphasized enough. Here in the north, it’s still in planting season time. There is still time to get some crops and and see a harvest.

And if you’ve never gardened before, this would be a good time to start and learn. There is a learning curve and better to do it before your life depends on what you are able to grow.

I read it and it’s so wide open with their “plans”, it can mean anything. Which of course is what they want. Which of course means it’s all bad. I’ve said for years that the government will make any bad situation magnitudes worse.

I’ve already got my zoo picked out. I can live off a hippo for two years. Hippo steaks, hippo stew, hippo scampi, hippo burgers, hippo fajitas, hippo jerky, hippo candy...

Then I’ll eat Shitlery for next for the next two.
