crossdlTrump administration cancels grant allowing Illinois schools to buy from local farmers.
Please sir, can I have some more?
Let them eat cake!
I’m hopeful this will all lead to America’s farmers breaking from the republican party.
I fear american farmers will go bankrupt and all their land will be bought by corporations.
Farmers sure do love voting Conservative, despite the fact that it negatively impacts them. The mistake is bringing logic into a discussion like this.
The farmers and the military vets probably high five each other just before the leopards come
Yeah, and then they’ll just blame it on woke
american farmers will go bankrupt and all their land will be bought by corporations.
We’re already past that. Something like 6 companies own the vast majority of US agriculture. And they’re not run by farmers but hedgies and the like, who have been setting up illegal monopolies while the feds do nothing about it on account of extreme bribery.
That’s literally the plan. It’s also why vail and ikon been buying up snow trails since the 80s/90s
I have to confess I look forward to removing Fascist farmers and replacing them with corporate farms. I think it’ll regulate that market better.
Man they sure like fucking over farmers, guess Soviet-style wreckage of agriculture by the government was on the Putin "to do" list.

At least the Ural-Siberian method actually had a reason to be implemented and the alternatives weren’t really much better.
Learning the hard way the E in DEI was helping them.
Aren’t the tariffs meant to be in place to stimulate the internal economy? These orders are starting to look a lot like high treason.
Said to? Yes. Meant to? No.
Yeah, markets are supposed to be free! Can’t be propping up uncompetitive businesses (unless they’re owned by cronies).
Crony capitalism!
henfredemarsThe intent is to destroy America at the behest of his master, Putin.
That’s definitely where my head is going. I cannot for the life of me think of a reasonable alternative.
He is a dumb fuck who’s dense enough to have an event horizon. Add the narcissism, possible dementia, and a general lack of anything remotely human.
No, that’s a lie they tell you because 1. Trump is a fucking idiot, and 2. The truth gives him what wants which is to exploit America fir his own narcissism. It’s a wonder he doesn’t just call it Trumpland Inc.
Why the hell would you need a grant to allow that? Can’t they buy from whoever they please?
Think of it more as a farm-to-table addition that was the only source of real fruits and vegetables.
Now going forward, everything will come from the back of a truck, previously frozen.
Still don’t understand why they were or are prohibited from buying those vegetables.
Are they just saying it’s now more expensive without the grant?
Yes most likely it’s more expensive to buy high quality food. They were given a grant to cover the higher cost, but required to buy local and thus support their community.
The first administration fucked over farmers with tariffs and then bailed them out. Trillions of dollars are being grifted to rich. They’ll chip in a few meager billions to farmers again.
Besides they hated when Obama tried to give kids healthy meals. I’m sure they be overjoyed that kids don’t have to eat the woke fresh foods.
The same folks who freaked out when Obama said they’d have to eat their veggies and screaming “No Pain, No Gain” now.
Thanks to gymbro brainrot, nowadays all forms of vegetables are seen as “carbs”, which they think makes people fat from just looking at them, so only minimal vegetables for your unseasoned chicken.
Different form of brain rot.
BakkodaPrudent planning. Just preparing for the dust bowl.
So much for encouraging local economy. Now all fruits and veggies will come from Mexico and frozen 😂
America first! Lol
