Does the animal identification system affect you? You bet it does!?
The National Animal Identification System (NAIS) might appear to only an 'agriculture' problem that is of little interest or consequence to urban dwellers. But, this insane proposal - which compels all owners of farm animals to register each animal with the U.S. government - is a dirty, underhanded trick by big corporations (like Tyson, Purdue and Cargills) to put independent farmers out of business. If you don't believe this affects YOU, think again.
If this law passes, it will be virtually impossible for you to buy beef, chicken, lamb or pork from anything but a large conglomerate food processor who uses chemicals and adds additives to its meat products. Don't let this happen to YOUR diet! YOU will pay higher prices for contaminated meat if YOU don't help prevent NAIS from being passed into federal law! Go to any of these sites for more information:

Where's the beef? I suspect the beef industry have a particular interest in getting rid of small farmers because their huge export market has decreased enormously.
It's ironic that NAIS are hiding under the pretense that public health is their main concern when, if the Agri-conglomerates get their way, we'll all be at risk.

Also join http://www.downsizedc.org/ and http://www.numbersusa.com/
Both organizations are in the process of helping us speak up for our rights as citizens. We did make the politicians listen to us over the amnesty bill. We can do it again.
NAIS is aimed at the SMALL FARMER and PET OWNER, not the corporations or even safety of the food chain.
It is just another part of the control agenda.

I have a whole hell of a lot more important things to worry about than this. Besides, I buy from the local butcher.
