Apparently, the content of the meme here is true, but the rationale remains unclear. Reports have cited that the measure was taken to protect Italy’s live (soon-to-be-slaughtered) beef industry.
I wonder why it’s the province of government to tell us what we can and cannot eat. The plant-based meat industry in the United States is not strong, but our constitution will not support a ban on the sale and consumption of Beyond Meat, Impossible Foods, or even demonstrably useless dietary supplements.
Here’s a reader who agrees: People are amazing to me. Why on Earth does anyone care what others want to eat? I don’t think I would eat lab grown meat, but why do I care if someone else does? It seems like a decent idea to alleviate some issues with the raising of livestock. I just wish people could mind their own business more when it comes to things that won’t affect them. Alas, wanting to control others, a true sign of weakness.
Not sure about this.
A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School might struggle to identify a bear. Could be.
This is the intelligence level of the American electorate today.
The Chinese ownership of American farmland is less than 0.00036, or 0.036%. To put this into perspective, if the entirety of U.S. farmland were reduced to one acre, the Chinese government and business interests would own less than 15 square feet, about half the size of a small broom closet.
Yet, true to form, this is a huge issue for the MAGA base.
This guy is quite effective in talking to uneducated, conservative Americans, most of whom have never traveled to, or even read anything about the happiest countries on Earth.
If I were going to make a statement about the relationship between social justice and despotism, I would at least consider the lives of the people in places that consider social justice to be something of importance, and compare/contrast this to the list of the countries that are perennially at the top of the World Happiness Rankings.
What makes the people in New Zealand, Iceland, Costa Rica, Northern Europe, etc., so happy? Why do these are these nations suffer exactly zero despotism?
I would be completely ashamed of myself if I were to forward a political theory that had precisely no basis in fact.
