@cassmarkonthemove Same. We buy half a cow. We call the processor and he/she gives us the cuts we want. It's way cheaper because my filet costs the same as my ground beef. It's better tasting and better quality than what you get in the store too. I've done it with a pig, but it's not as cost effective. So now we just process any wild female boar we manage to kill while deer hunting.

@WrongTimeWatch We purchased a large deep freezer and it's full after processing. It's worth the expense for sure. Ours is in our garage. Sure we lose a parking space, but the hubby's truck wouldn't fit anyway with my car and we've got 380 lbs of beef for less than $4 a lbs.

Ah yes. The government cheese.

Don't forget the massive outbreaks of bird flu and hoof in mouth disease causing millions of animals to be removed from the supply.

@stephenkramp5602 The birds are dead and the eggs aren't fertilized. So there's zero danger of what you speculated occurring. Please try to a hatch an egg you purchase in the grocery store.

I'm questioning if they've been intentionally infected. The farmers don't hatch the chicks that are used to supply stores. The chicks arrive from the company they have contracted with. They raise them and as long as they keep a certain number alive, the contract is fulfilled and they get paid. So if they send a single infected chick, the entire supply in those houses will quickly become infected. Meaning it could not have come from the farmers, but from an infected batch from the supplier.

@LavishPatchKid They are still processed in the US regardless of where who owned them is. What you are insinuating won't really happen. It's far cheaper to grow and process them here. They would also have to add a sticker saying where they are from if they did what you suggest and people wouldn't buy them. Just like most don't buy fish from certain parts due to what they are fed on the fish farms. It would cut heavy into profits. Tyson is still US owned and they produce the majority of chicken. Edit: The federal government doesn't control the sale of private businesses. So who was President, governor, or anything else is completely irrelevant except to try to score some type of political points from stupid people.

That's the point. The businesses become big, lobby the government for more and more regulations, to prevent competition. The big processors propose these regulations so little processors can't grow and compete. It's been going on since Heize and Coke. Heinze had lots of small competitors after he invented ketchup. It was available in different price ranges depending on the quality of ingredients. In order to protect his product he complained to government officials about unsafe ingredients in other versions. Coke did it by demanding the other products weren't safe because the bottles weren't sterilized after he'd purchased a bottling company.

That's not true. Government will always get bigger because all government cares about is control and power. It has nothing to do with how we behave. You seem very confused as to what the role of government is supposed to be. I don't ask the government for my rights. They exist despite what the government says.
