I got a feeling this administration is gonna release a an influenza in late October that only affects the turkey industry. If he could he would wreck Thanksgiving for everyone. Simply speaking, it’s the folks that prop this puppet not just dt that need removal. It’s that Stephen Miller bitch who needs his skull turned into an ashtray. It’s the inhuman Tom Homan , he’s despicable on his best day. If we can begin that process of removal , I then have a shred of faith that America may begin to recover. Unfortunately, some serious sausage is gonna need to be tubed up. Well ya’ll understand how it happens. No need to go on to any further detail here.

Retail beef prices are soaring, but I can tell you from the other end, auction sale prices of market weight steers sure as fuck hasn't gone up that much.
Lot of squeezing happening in the middle somewhere. Curious, that one.
We noticed this when we went to a Texas Roadhouse. Their restaurant prices for steaks hadn’t gone up hardly at all and seemed very surprisingly reasonable, whole beef at the grocer is painful.

Not sure where you are, but here in Alberta it's more than double what it was a few years ago to buy a half steer, and I'm buying from a family member.

People will just switch to chicken, pork, or add “meat free Friday” to their menus. Consumers are fed up at this point and aren’t going to pay some of these prices.
I am a vegetarian, however my dog is not. She has multiple allergies (chicken, and all grains) and I have to cook her food for her. It is getting really expensive to feed her.
Look into rabbit or kangaroo, depending on where you're located they could be reasonably priced vs beef. Pets with common protein allergies usually don't have reactions to those, or venison for that matter.
Source: one of our cats is allergic to basically all poultry, we switched to rabbit and salmon based foods

This is the result with my wife and I. Before I was pushing us to eat less beef for environmental reasons but years ago the price went up enough that its essentially a special occasion thing and fast food went out the window with their prices getting to high. What stinks is pork is something I wanted to eliminate but its cost vs quality tends to beat out all other meats except maybe the five dollar costco chickens.

Sad to hear that a single day a week without eating meat is an inconvenience for some :(
MAYBE if we give Producers LESS Regulations and Competition they'll DROP Prices?
-Donald Trump and ALSO Democrats!
Same story since at least Reagan. Surely next time it will work!
I don't know, it seems trickle down has been a great success... for the wealthy!
Corporate dictatorship, doing corporate dictatorship things, because it's a corporate dictatorship.
Any reduction in beef consumption is a win for the environment. I hope beef becomes completely unaffordable.
Edit: Instead of down voting, maybe do a cursory investigation into some of the top causes of climate change. It ain't bean sprouts causing it.
if production doesn't decrease, the environment won't notice.
What happens when demand decreases?
advertising increases or prices drop or new markets are opened
Surely a store with no customers will still exist! Love this argument and how solid the logic is. Follow your little thought experiment farther than just a few steps.

People are too emotionally invested in meat. They'd rather die in record high temperatures than go without or even reduce.
