2020 Dems Want Americans to Eat Less Meat, Then Help Cook Over 10,000 Steaks At Iowa Event

17 Democrat presidential candidates showed up to a streak fry event in Iowa.

Over 10,000 streaks were grilled.

Whats hilarious is that some Dems feel Americans need to eat less and less meat.

Hmmm…

From Free Beacon:

The organizers of the Iowa Polk County Democratic Party’s annual steak fry will be grilling 10,500 steaks and 1,000 vegan burgers on 10 grills, during Saturday’s event. Some of the candidates will grill steaks themselves.

Democratic candidates recently participated in a CNN climate town hall, where multiple candidates discussed the importance of reducing meat intake. Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) called for the U.S. government to create incentives to eat less meat.

So many Democrats saying ridiculous things, so little time.

Thursday belonged to soon-to-be-failed candidate, Andrew Yang.

Like a good Democrat, he wants the government to control everything you do – including what you eat.

Thursday at Georgetown University’s Institute of Politics and Public Service during MSNBC’s Climate Forum, presidential hopeful Andrew Yang said the government needed to tax the cattle industry to “modify Americans’ diets.”

Yang said, “Cattle is very energy-consuming and energy-expensive, and if you project forward on what we would need to do to reduce emissions, you would want to modify Americans’ diets over time.”

He added, “Now, some of that is happening naturally through education. I do think it’s difficult to regulate diets. So what you would want to do again is you’d want those cattle producers to have to internalize the cost of emissions because if your cattle ends up polluting a lot, which they do, just naturally.”

Yang continued, “So then, what that would naturally do, and some people are going to hate this, but it would probably make those products more expensive. And that is appropriate because there’s a cost to producing food in that way. And so if you were to make it more expensive than you would end up changing consumption patterns over time.“
