Plentiful and inexpensive food and energy are two of the factors that separate our country from Europe and the rest of the world. Alexis de Toqueville marveled at the bounty enjoyed by even the poorest in America when compared with the starving huddled masses of Europe in the 1800s who slaved for monarchs and aristocrats. The same is true today. A "poor" American is far better off than so many living in other parts of the world.
So, the Bureau of Land Management is working - and ready to kill human beings - in order to move cows that have grazed for 100 or more years off of 600,000 acres of range land in Nevada.
More than 200 law enforcement officers, armed with handguns, shotguns, assault rifles and sniper rifles have established a perimeter and are keeping a Nevada rancher and his family from entering their land. Meanwhile they are rounding up his cattle and moving them.
Why?
To make way for a desert tortoise. That has coexisted with these cows. For more than 100 years.
In the meantime, the price of beef in the US has gone up 19% this past year.
Combine that with ever-increasing EPA, USDA, FDA and DOE regulations and it is easy to understand why government inflation figures omit the cost increases in fuel and food.
The Left must STOP WAGING WAR ON THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE!
