They also have this delusion that they are the \u201cWorld Government\u201d and that all nations should be subservient to them.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things they like pushing is the bogus \u201cClimate Change\/Global Warming\u201d nonsense. The UN Elites see it as a way to institute direct rule over pretty much everyone, for their own good of course. One of the things these clods like to do is generate reports to show why they should be the ones in charge or why they think they know more than everyone else. This brings us to the idea of taxing meat out of existence. Here are the details of this foolishness from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2016\/may\/25\/un-expert-calls-for-tax-on-meat-production\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Guardian<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Governments should tax meat production in order to stem the global rise in consumption and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2016\/mar\/21\/eat-less-meat-vegetarianism-dangerous-global-warming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">environmental damage that goes with it<\/a>, according to a UN expert. <\/b><b>The world faces serious environmental problems if emerging economies <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2014\/dec\/03\/eating-less-meat-curb-climate-change\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">such as China<\/a> emulate Americans and Europeans in the amount of meat they eat, Prof Maarten Hajer, the lead author of a report into the impact of food production and the environment, told the UN environment assembly in Nairobi. <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201c<b>If we were all to copycat the way in which we feed ourselves in North America or Europe [with meat], the planet would be in deep trouble,\u201d he said.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Why yes, you would be in deep trouble since it would mean you might not be able to get the choicest cuts for yourself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Hajer stopped short of calling for a tax on meat sold in supermarkets and shops, but he said people <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2015\/nov\/24\/meat-tax-far-less-unpalatable-than-government-thinks-research-finds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">could be deterred<\/a> from eating meat by increasing its price further up the supply chain. <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201c<b>We think it\u2019s better to price meats earlier in the chain, it\u2019s easier. It\u2019s sexier to tax it at the consumer level, but not as effective,\u201d said Hajer, a member of the International Resource Panel (IRP), which comprises 34 top scientists and 30 governments. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, good luck with that Doc. Speaking of which, I looked up this moonbat to see what he\u2019s all about. A basic search came up with all sorts of things, but I decided to <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Maarten_Hajer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">look at Wikipedia<\/a>.

Why it would be&#8230;meat. There is a reason humans like to eat meat. It\u2019s good for us. Humans are not herbivores, no matter how much morons like these Euroscum want us to be. Humans are Omnivores. This means we gain nutrition from both meat and vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to meat, we can eat just about any mammal on Earth. When it comes to plants, we have to be careful. Why? Because most plant life is poisonous to humans. Also, meat provides more value per pound than vegetables.
