American Thinker
Have you ever heard the expression, “lipstick on a pig”?
America’s entrenched bureaucracy, often referred to as the Fourth Branch, is that pig. No amount of superficial or cosmetic measures can obscure the fact that federal agencies of unelected policymakers are no different than dirty sties full of gorged swine (there’s a reason wanton and greedy spending is called “pork”).
‘Lipstick’ comes in many forms: “news” reports from a once-sacred institution like American journalism is really just propaganda, the use of words like “progress” and “sustainability” cover over agendas of eugenics and genocide, and now, a new and chic marketing ploy muddies the waters of what should be worrisome data collection.
Enter, another federal database, this time managed by the United States Department of Agriculture. Cutely named the “People’s Garden Initiative”, the directory compiles locations and information regarding small scale gardening endeavors. Gee, what could possibly go wrong?
But here’s the craziest part: the Machiavellian operatives besieging what should be a limited and subordinate federal government, are flaunting their political prowess. With this move, their subjugative aggressions aren’t even by force.
Instead, they adroitly manipulate the populace to enthusiastically sprint towards the abattoir. We only have our own mindlessness and self-aggrandizing spirits to blame. It’s death by a thousand cuts, not death by one cut. We can take a few slashes so long as we get featured and tagged on social media as a virtuous influencer. more
Like they say, we’re seven meals away from anarchy. The Self Sustainers are the armed assholes that will take every bit of food from a Libtard. Your vote had consequences.
If they think I’m going to register my green beans and tomatoes they are fucking nuts!
All I had were Mums.
If I can figure out how to make some Jose Cuervo, I’ll be good.
It will be interesting if we escape this stupidity in Nov.
I lost my garden in a boating accident
Fedgov is way outside their mandate here. The incompetent morons want to control everything.
They will have to pry my globe artichokes from my cold, dead fingers before I give them up!
Voter fraud is too deep: it’s the only reason the politicans enabling the likes of these dangerous bureaucrats keep getting ‘elected’ and ‘re-elected’.
If you grow your own food they can’t put their additives in it.
Maybe that’s why Gov Witmer in Michigan had a no garden seed purchases during her Coof lockdown.
Years ago, the Feds successfully sued a farmer for growing grain on his land which he did not sell but used for his livestock. The Court ruled that the farmer was engaged in interstate commerce because keeping his grain off the market affected grain market prices.
So my guess is that they want to know who the self-sufficiency farmers are so they can tax them. But they’d never use that information to harass or surveil them.
Proudly positioned near the top of the database of people on the most databases.
Just grow weed
I’m going to do what Cheech & Chong did, put a fake swimming pool canvas over my garden. That should fool the government.
Unelected bureaucrats need to all be fired.
NOAA is currently using made up data to try to kill lobstering in Maine so they can push the windmill agenda. They want windmills offshore. $$$$$$
Our useless Governor is all for it. The wind company out of MA.
