There are so many fucked up things with the current administration that it's hard to focus on one but this recent move is basically a death sentence for the planet. I've been involved with more boots on the ground actions over the years than I can count and this really bums me out.

Pardon me, but how stupid is this? Why is it so hard for governments to smash monopolies? This is FOOD we are talking about. Smdh.
Are you tackling the monopolies or not? That money will just end up in their coffers.
