I hope you know that the USDA is wanting to tag all of the domestic livestock in the United States. Every pig,
cow, chicken, turkey, sheep, horse, llama, duck any and all domestic livestock. That means billions of
animals need to be tagged. Who is going to pay for it? The farmer. Who is going to benefit from it? The huge
factory farmer who doesn't need to tag every animal if they are in a confined setting and tag manufacturers,
just to name a few. The USDA says this is for disease control, yet they open up the Canadian borders which
have had BSE
