I guess that you did not read the links I posted as to why the Dutch government made the regulatory changes and why the Dutch farmers are protesting. Earth atmosphere is not the issue in Netherlands. It is the chemical runoff from fertilizer usage into the waters endangering the eco systems, fish,water and plant life. No. The government set up arbitrary limits on cattle production which the courts enforced that are now bringing down the farming sector in the Netherlands. The EU is gutting the agricultural economy in the Netherlands and the people are powerless to stop it because democracy is so eroded in Europe. Britain is thankfully out of that deal but still facing international pressures to commit economic suicide. Quote

The pollution problem had been well known but lack of initiative and action has now made it a real problem and something has to be done. Even though everyone knew, blindfolds were worn and now the blindfolds have top come off and no one is happy. The Netherlands has a very bad pollution problem killing the water ecosystm which is the prime livelihood of the country. They have to do something or else it will all stop. The government set fertilizer limits for agriculture farmers.. Dairy cattle and beef livestock and their manure is a huge part of the runoff problem as well. The government sees no way to control or lessen the problem so yes, they have offered to buy out farmers in order to save some of the farms.. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/dec/15/netherlands-announces-25bn-plan-to-radically-reduce-livestock-numbers?

The smartest move they can make is to exit the EU asap and get rid of their oppressive WEF government. They’re engineering a food scarcity crisis. The run-off problem can be mitigated. They can sell the manure. It’s much worse than you think because at the same time that small farmers are being shut down, farm land is being bought up. The EU is also disrupting countries by planning a new city state that lays inside a few different countries. Sovereignty is being undermined. Edited July 29, 2022 by Zeitgeist 1 Quote

Funny thing is no one cares. Whoever is doing it thinks they’re shocking people. It’s just gross and reinforces the need to reel in screwed up morality. Funny how the broadcast regulators won’t intervene on this but government seems intent on censoring ideas they don’t like. Screwed up values. Edited July 29, 2022 by Zeitgeist Quote

Yes, the government is setting up mitigation for the fertilizer problem. Who buys cow shit?? And if there is a viable market, why have the farmers not already embraced that market and prevented or reduced the problem? The government has told the farmers that want to retire or quit that it will buy their land. As is stated in the article I posted.

Your obsession with the WEF is as paranoid as anything I have ever read on this forum, maybe even worse. You still don’t understand. The WEF isn’t a Dr. Evil directing our demise. It’s the Davos consensus about what governments and corporations should do to save the planet (read profits and power). They’re the elites driving our policies and media. It’s not conspiratorial. It’s top down control that uses the rhetoric of social justice and climate activism to offload corporate and government responsibilities onto the less privileged. Many members believe that their unaccountable oligarchy is a saviour, but they aren’t the ones who are impacted by higher prices and more restrictions. Our democracy and economies are very vulnerable to overreach, especially in times of crisis, especially when the power and money hungry see opportunities to exploit crises.

-TSS- Posted July 30, 2022 Report Posted July 30, 2022 These people need some improvement in their PR-skills. I mean Klaus Schwab is a comical character.

Brexit had big costs that are hopefully temporary. I opposed it (I am a British-Canadian dual citizen), but I see now that Britain had to protect its sovereignty against the intrusive central planning of Brussels. The Dutch farmers are realizing that their own national government has ceded authority to the EU on such essential matters as food production and agriculture. Disempower your farmers and food production authority and you risk losing the capacity to feed your citizens. It happened in Mao China’s Great Leap Forward with the starvation of peasants and in the Soviet Holodomar starvation of Ukrainians. I also think countries like Canada have ceded too much authority to international organizations and agreements (UN, WEF elites, IMF, etc.). Effective government must be quite local because it’s very hard to make an international government accountable to citizens and represent local interests. I think Canada runs the serious risk of lowering living standards, reducing freedoms, and destroying both our energy and food security by becoming beholden to international bodies and policies. Trudeau is far too naive, privileged, and detached from local interests to see what his international grandstanding and compliance has wrought. 1 Quote

So why is it, that only the extreme right see that, max well Bernier was told he was crazy for even suggesting it? I thought PP included it in his campaign promises not sure. I agree 100 % why should consumers be forced to pay higher costs to keep the industry up and running. Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

I can't say it's a protectionist measure that bothers me much in a practical sense like we pay 30 cents more for a litre of milk than the Americans ? I don't notice that like say the 20% more that a car costs you in Canada Quote
Dougie93 Posted July 30, 2022 Report Posted July 30, 2022 there's two things in America which are more expensive that you would probably notice way more one is utilities, water, heating & electricity, that is 15% more expensive in America but the big one would be local purchasing power that's the prices where you live in relation to your income that is 26% higher in America, and that probably impoverishes working class Americans the most Quote
