Pro  15655    |  Subject: RE: Green New DealOriginally posted by dmiller5 Originally posted by Left Brain Let's say 20 inches of rain in a year on 100 acres. That's estimated to be 54,000,000 gallons. Let's use your 100 cattle on 100 acres....standard rule is 50 cow/calf pairs for every 2 acres. (of course that's considering good ground.....much land will support less, for sure) Let's say 400 lbs. per head of cattle......you need 72,000,000 gallons. We're 18,000,000 gallons short IF EVERY DROP WENT TO THE CATTLE for food and water. And BTW - the avg. weight of a steer to slaughter is about 1100-1200 lbs....which yields about 500 lbs. of meat. Uh, yeah......................No. LOL Statistics..........make 'em say whatever you want......just don't try to tell me it takes 720,000 gallons of water to raise 500 lbs of trimmed, boneless meat from a cow....that's complete and total bullchit....prolly made up by somebody who doesn't eat meat and saw a cow one time in a John Wayne movie while eating tofu popcorn, and believed by people who get their news from twitter. The world is a better place when people just eat, and stop trying to figure out how their food is somehow bad for them and their environment. divide by 3 lb, its total water, not water per year. and go do some research i guess on how much water a cow consumes, and on how much water is needed to grow the food it consumes. Bro......it's water.....it's not going to stop falling out of the sky. LOL And Dave.....you need to spend some time around folks who raise cattle......it DOES NOT take 3 years to get to market. Most will get there in 12-18 months....that's with 4-6 months in a feed lot. 36 months is the WAY OUTSIDE end of the time range....that's for completely grass fed cattle that don't have good grass. If you're really worried about the water.....eat veal. The calves can barely move as they are "raised"......and they get slaughtered in as little as 3-4 months. Sooooooo tender, and you save water!!! Like I said.....I'm only half-arsed in this discussion. I'm not arguing over the food I enjoy eating. Eating is one of life's greatest pleasures.....and good beef is WAY up the list of food for me.

Pro 15655 | Subject: RE: Green New Deal It looks like you guys have a hero in O'Crazio Chavez......she wants to get rid of cows. LMAOOOO Nope. Hell, we'll release them into the wild, like we did hogs, so we'll always have a good source of meat. I hope the Dems embrace this program with everything they have!!! HAHAHA!!!

Ironic that libs alarmed about all the melting and yet want to abolish ICE. (see that I did there) Yea, they're worried about melting polar ice because they live along the coast. As the seas rise, they'll be forced inland with the rest of us deplorables. |

Pro 15655 | Subject: RE: Green New Deal Just read the "Green New deal" launch.....BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! Ocrazio Chavez has GOT to be a GOP plant.....there is no other way to explain something this stupid. Either that, or this woman has serious narcissistic mental problems. The report reads like a middle school essay project. At this point, I would have to sell my soul to align myself IN ANY WAY with the Democrat Party. What a damn joke.....and to see other Dems lining up behind this idiot is truly unbelievable. Edited by Left Brain 2019-02-08 12:46 PM |
