Growth hormones - what are Americans eating? What will be the long-term effects of these additives to our diets? Ecology - raising meat is inefficient. Energy and resources are being squandered. Health - meat consumption can be dangerous. Once Obamacare becomes the law of the land, consumption of meat will be an anti-social act because all health costs must be borne by the State.

Based on this, in part, I don't see the Obama Administration banning meat any time soon:

I suggest on the way back from stocking up at the gun store (before they try to take your guns away) you stop by a farm and buy cows, chickens and pigs to keep in your basement. That way when the gubment closes all those farms you're sitting on a meat gold mine.

You scoff, but banning smoking in bars, bowling alleys, and now parks sounded like crazy talk a decade or two ago. They are coming for your Oreo's already, and meat is the next target. I hate to admit listening to NPR, I only do it for opposition research purposes, but they were interviewing some Academic nut that claimed something to the effect that meat consumption is the leading cause of global warming, and should be banned.

If the government can require you to pay for other peoples health care, turn smokers into evil burdens on society, and launch a war on transfats, what makes you think they won't go after meat next?
