Another story from the "Be careful who you vote for, you might just get him" section:

Obama-era rules that had yet to take effect would have given smaller farmers more power to set the terms of their deals with massive meat companies, empowering the growers to sue and better define abusive practices by processors and distributors under federal law. Trump’s Agriculture Department killed two of the proposed rules, one of which would have taken effect in October.
Ooops. Buttery males tho.
 
So you're angry because President Trump's deregulation of industry means that free-range, antibiotic-free turkeys that cost a premium have better living conditions imposed on their ranchers by the companies that want to market them?
That bastard. That rat bastard.



"Trump’s deregulatory strike — lauded by big business — has consequences, even for the mom-and-pop turkey farmers who raise free-range, antibiotic-free turkeys that have seen increasing demand as Americans become more socially conscious about the production of their foods.

Horst is afraid a planned sale of his farm will fall through because Plainville Farms, a major organic food producer and the primary customer for his turkeys, is requiring the buyer to install upgrades including fans, tunnel ventilation and a stationary generator if it wants to continue supplying to the company."

Weren't these people already being fucked?

I am about 99.999% sure they were, and the previous administrations didn't give a fuck.

This is a lie.

Trump protects the coal industry from changes that would cost the companies too much even though the coal industry is killing the whole fucking planet.

He doesn't give two shits about some turkey farmer. Blow it out your ass.
