Wait until he can't even eat his steak because all of the livestock has been infected with screwworms due to deregulation ope.
Not even deregulation. we had a cheap efficient program that held screw worm out of north america. Basically we irradiated male grubs which sterilized them, then froze the fly's and dropped them over an area to prevent them from breeding and spreading.
This was cut because we were operating outside the US and why should other countries also benefit from our tax dollars.
The dumbass 'gubment bad' crew fucked us all.
Wow, amazing, thank you for that background I did read about it but didn't realize it was quite so simple, relatively speaking. I can't believe the short sightedness of these folks, it's unbelievable, it was probably a drop in the hat in the budget and now it's going to end up costing way way more than they saved, hopefully no one dies, poor animals though although I suppose they were set to be eaten anyways but still.
