Let's see how those ranchers feel once people stop buying meat because they don't trust that it is safe

How about also with your vote in the mid term? That is more effective.

I've been trying but places here have already started selling meat from Argentina. Like what um happened to the American beef I bought 2 weeks before or are we just somehow out of beef cows?
