https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFcQOSzetOsSmall farmer here. I’ll sum this up real quick. Big ag gives big money to politicians who vote against bills that would help small farmers. It’s illegal for me to process an animal and sell it off our farm. We are forced to take to a USDA facility where a USDA inspector stands there while the animal is put down then they go back to their off. This adds cost and in our case there is a single processor with a 100 miles. The death tax makes it all but impossible to pass off land and assets. Your neighborhood was once someone’s living. Lastly it y’all. You want 3.99 hamburger, we can’t produce it for even close to that- 4 processors control 70% of the beef market and they don’t compete with each other but keep it low enough to undercut local farmers. BTW that steak that was stamped USDA was more than likely raised in South America- the slab is stamped once it enters the US. Fun fact. Cattle farming is the leading cause of deforestation of the rainforest. Some 80%. Getting locally produced beef is about the greenest thing you can do to help the planet. Not to mention our cattle stay on grass until the very end. No feed lots, no crowded pens, no stress for the animal. USDA needs a serious overhaul.
Yep...debt slavery, wage slavery, and tax slavery...
It was never about "the money." Something the peons (like the conjobs on this forum) never understood - and I doubt they ever will

Many years ago I went to DC for the first time. Actually quite an interesting little trip.
One thing impressed me: the Department on Agriculture building.
It is **** huge. All I thought was, "How many micromanagers do we need for this ****?"
Please seat yourself.
I like the very things you hate.

I get free tongue, tail, heart and liver from several different mom and pop processors (non USDA) in my area. They are legally constrained against selling it, so they give it away.LowIQTrash » 45 minutes ago » wrote: ↑

The heart and liver are mostly for the dogs and chickens (I will cook liver and onions occasionally, but not at anything near the pace at which I acquire them). The tongue is mostly for me - I consider it one of the best parts of the cow. Everyone likes the tail. It goes for 8 bucks a pound in the supermarket.
IF I HAD MY WAY, this would not be happening - happy circumstance though it is for me. But it is happening, and it is happening for a reason. Capitalism locks competition out of the market, using the government gun. Well, if life is going to give me those lemons, I am going to make lemonade. By the way, the beef is top quality, as the people who raise it are raising it for themselves and their families, on grass and not in feed lots, using old school stewardship.

Americans love their Mickey D's & Chick Fil A too much to care about Monsanto or The Empire.
Imagine how typical Americans will respond when the economy collapses (for real):
"How did the GUBMINT allow this to happen? It's all the GUBMINT's fault!"

1) I despise liver - yes, it's the most nutrient dense part of the animal (something "carnivore diet" hipsters will always broach), and it also processes all the waste of the animal. It's like adding radioactive saltwater to your heavy metal detox smoothie.
It has a "metallic" taste FOR A GOOD REASON.
2) Using Marxist theory, the monopolization/oligopolization of farming was INEVITABLE. Even had "Big Ag" been barred from the halls of Congress, there would still be an ongoing effort within the "free market" to consolidate everything under - as the DNC might say - "A BIG TENT [HOMO/***] PARTY!"
Now if you say this wasn't the case back when the Phoenicians were trading with the Hittites, I will reply:
1) Capital has accumulated at a pace unseen in human history since the 1800s, so you can't compare the modern era "free markets" with "free enterprise" of the past
2) Kings actually cared about their subjects' welfare [ contrary to lies by the (((usual suspects))) ] so any effort to monopolize farming would have been thwarted by the monarchy in 300 BC.
