Why is beef so expensive?” The answer to this question has been several years in the making.
Pasture conditions began to deteriorate across the United States in 2020. The La Niña-driven drought would press on for the next three years causing pasture conditions to deteriorate and sending prices for feed grains to record levels (Figure 2). At the same time, inflation began to rise, driving up costs for everyone in the United States, including farmers and ranchers. The combination of drought and high input costs compelled farmers to place a higher-than-normal percentage of female cattle on feed for slaughter, rather than keeping them for replacement breeding, resulting in increased short-term beef production but contraction in the cattle inventory.
This contraction has led to the smallest cattle inventory in 73 years and a reduction in the U.S. beef supply. The cattle inventory takes more time to rebuild than other livestock inventories because it takes 18-24 months from a calf’s birth until it is fed to slaughter weight and ready for market.
The crux of this story is the U.S. cattle inventory has decreased to a seriously low level, but the market isn’t providing incentives for farmers to grow the herd again, causing beef prices to rise to record levels. From a business standpoint it may not make a lot of sense to enter the cattle business or expand because, while the cash price for cattle is elevated, increased costs for supplies, along with market uncertainty, have become obstacles to profitability. , and it is uncertain whether the cattle prices two or three years out will reward this investment The U.S. is home to the most affordable food supply in the world , in part because of the risks that farmers and ranchers take to make it so, even when it won’t necessarily pencil out.

Trump falsely accuses democrat lawmakers of sedition punishable by death. However sedition is not about telling military to disobey illegal orders. Military loyalty is supposed to be to US constitution and not the president. Some judges have pushed back against military occupation of cities which is what dictators do in authoritarian regimes. Trump derangement syndrome is not recognized in psychiatric diagnosis manual for mental disorders. Instead TDS is an insult against his critics.

Uslawexplained.com; This concept is not about disagreeing with the government, no matter how loudly. It’s about conspiring with others to use force to disrupt or overthrow the very functions of that government. Understanding this distinction is one of the most important things a citizen can do to protect both their rights and their nation's stability.
First of all there are no illegal military orders being handed out, second, first line military personnel, in most cases, would not know if an order was legal or illegal. Telling the military we have your back and it's ok to disobey orders you may deem illegal is an attempt to disrupt the function of that government. It's walking that fine line to treasonous behavior. Military loyalty is to their superiors, they don't argue constitutionality and then decide.

Mental illnesses are officially classified in a dense and dry book published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) known as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). This book contains 947 pages and lists hundreds of mental disorders; TDS is nowhere to be seen. Similarly, a review of scholarly databases such as MEDLINE and Google Scholar reveal no academic papers on this alleged syndrome. Officially at least, TDS is not a real, diagnosable, or treatable mental disorder.
That said, medical anthropologists and critical sociologists have convincingly argued that DSM-5 is a flawed document. Indeed, social scientists have long recognized that there are numerous "folk categories" of mental disorders that are considered real conditions by the general public, even though they are not recognized as such in the DSM. These include categories such as "burnout" or "nervous breakdown."
As such, lack of official recognition does not mean that TDS is not a real mental condition.

"Trump derangement syndrome is not recognized in psychiatric diagnosis manual for mental disorders." Alternate question, does it matter? Does one dispute a change in behavior relatable to Trump winning the presidency? The honest answer is no they wouldn't, so what does it matter what its called or where its recognized? Semantics from a losing proposition really.
Was this a gift idea for the kids at Christmas ?
Don't mention the frogs - we don't want to scare the toddler - we want him to sleep

All of your politicians lie (overpromise) because you guys don’t want to hear the truth ! There is almost nothing a politician can do about affordability and raising prices - and your system is corrupt from the ground up and most of you are treated like slaves - with no plans of changing any of this because those with money don’t want that change ! Those are the facts - no politician in their right mind would host valleys telling you this ! And republicans and the rich right now try to tell you the immigrants working for 7 USD pr hour is the problem for all your misfortune !
A big chunk of your population is the right mix of stupid and ignorant
