After a decade of relative quiet, the federal authorities has ramped once more up its efforts to handle the US meals present, and eradicate any players and decisions that acquired’t completely embrace the corporate authorities collusion that has outlined the US meals and farming sector for six a few years.
Searching for golf gear are having product siezed and destroyed. Farmers markets are seeing a big enhance in inspections and harassment of artisans and native producers.
Farmers in all places face a lot of newest legal guidelines, pointers, and functions meant to extra enrich the meat packers and totally different middlemen whereas taking more money out of their pockets.
And lest you suppose homeowners with egg-laying chickens acquired’t be centered, suppose as soon as extra.
The federal authorities is already demanding registration of even one yard rooster inside the UK, and the distinctive Nationwide Animal Identification System (NAIS) within the USA required the similar of metropolis homesteaders. (1, 2)
This time…once more for what may be its fifth attempt…the USDA is as quickly as as soon as extra making an attempt to roll out radio digital radio frequency ID tags for livestock with the sneaky rebranding from NAIS (a decade previously) to RFID.
Why RFID?
Enterprise entrance groups say we wish RFID for greater transparency (these from individuals who use processing facilities with no dwelling home windows and meat created from 500 cows!) and to have the power to answer quickly to sickness outbreaks all through the nation.
Surely, the rationale they want RFID is that it may give them higher administration over the farmers who’ve little various nonetheless to advertise into the financial meat commodity system.
For the time being, 4 to five companies administration 80% or further of beef, pork, and rooster within the USA.
They might favor that amount to be a minimal of 100%, and RFID is one different strategy to energy farmers to play their sport by their pointers and push out smaller operations.
First they observe the animals… then they observe the people
RFID is a component of a much bigger, long-term goal for governments and well-connected companies to hint all human conduct, to permit them to income from it.
Similar to the push for a single digital international cash, the push for RFID would then allow:
- The facility to impose limits and quotas on animal raisings and compelled cullings like we’re seeing in
Europe and totally different nations beneath the justification of native climate change (you could possibly have too many cows,
sheep, and goats producing too many emissions, so it is important to extend a lot much less animals!) - Additional stringent enforcement of vaccines and the flexibleness to energy the adoption of mRNA and comparable
vaccines by farmers in order to have the power to place their animals into the processing chain. - Means to easily cull animals in areas and areas beneath the pretense of sickness outbreaks like fowl
flu using phony PCR testing outcomes. - Full and complete surveillance of your full US meat present.
As Catherine Austin Fitts, former Beneath Secretary of the US Division of Commerce has acknowledged, animal ID and digital international cash ID are a precursor to crucial goal of all – frequent human RFID and monitoring.
Whereas this sounds outlandish, one in every of many earlier variations of the RFID program – NAIS (the nationwide animal ID system) – included a 1-800 amount that farmers have been required to call inside 24 hours of any animal movement open air the designated property boundaries.
An actual “why did the rooster cross the freeway” question, in addition to the USDA didn’t care why… merely when and the place, and in case you didn’t comply, tons of to lots of of {{dollars}} of fines have been to watch.
With the growth of internet and totally different utilized sciences, the phone amount is not needed, because the federal authorities (and companies who access the information…) would know 24/7 the place all the animals have been and what farmers and homesteaders have been as a lot as.
Quite a lot of that’s moreover tied to the push to get people to undertake meatless meats, which thus far have been, no matter billions of {{dollars}} of investmenet, promoting and advertising and marketing, and authorities manipulation, a big flop.
As we’re seeing in Europe and parts of the US, there is a precise push…with huge money behind it…to create a totally meatless, even animal-free, meals system.
By bugs, by “plant based meats,” regardless of it takes, one thing nonetheless letting people devour nutrient dense animal merchandise raised naturally on pasture!
What We Can Do to Stop RFID
In case you’re a farmer or homesteader, be part of the tens of lots of of us who’ve pledged to it does not matter what, not comply, like Congressman Thomas Massie of KY, who raises grass-fed beef.
Second, take a second to contact your senators and marketing consultant and ask them to cosponsor and help Rep. Harriet Hageman’s bill, Modification 10, to stop EID/RFID. (3)
Moreover, ask your marketing consultant to help Rep. Hageman’s H.J.Res.167 choice which disapproves the rule submitted by the Division of Agriculture relating to “Use of Digital Identification Eartags as Official Identification in Cattle and Bison”. (4)
Third, take into consideration changing into a member of Congresswoman Hageman, Joel Salatin, John Moody, and others at Rogue Meals TX in November 2024 or Florida in March 2025the place we are able to have a selected cope with stopping RFID, the fowl flu nonsense getting used to harass raw milk farmers, and additional, and help us ship a message to the USDA that we’re in a position to fight to protect our farmers and meals present.
