Understatement of the century. But money controls the media.

The beef industry has lots and lots of (subsidized) money...

Furthermore, who gives a shit where it came from? The herd that came from Canada was over here for years. Years. There are plants in Washington, one of which handles "sick and downed cows" that hadn't been inspected for years.

See the problem? Sick and downed cows are the most likely to have Mad Cow. Yet they weren't inspected for years. Yet, this is somehow Canada's fault.

Personally I don't care what anyone eats. However, you'll forgive me if I have a hearty chuckle on those who die from eating meat. And if you don't: "My boy, I really don't care."
