    Supposedly this is being pushed the most by rich, and often European,
    people, like Bill Gates and some guy named Schwab.

    Agreed. No we do not. ;)

    Anyways, people are going to state parks and harvesting them and dnr is mad.

    Are they mad because people are doing it, or because someone was aggressive
    in getting them to do their jobs?

    Either way, that is pretty wild that people would be out harvesting them.

    DNR should just be happy they aren't drinking the cow milk that will giv them
    the chicken virus to wash down the cicadas.
    Reading this, I could not help but think of that annoying song they
    taught us as kids, about the old lady who swallowed a fly (perhaps
    she'll die!).

    It's all very annoying. The not so silent drum beat of another pandemic, people harvesting and eating bugs, the number of chickens and cows being culled to "save the planet" is a bit .. dystopian for sure.

    people are posting their grocery receipts from last year, comparing them to the same items. prices are about 2x.

    i'm still not so sure why chicken is so expensive when we can produce chickens so fast. go look up morgan spurlock's doc on chickens

    yeah i've been dipping into the credit cards way too much.
    i'll have to run leaner and pay them off aggressively.

    people actually believe this, too. that's why you can't trust people.
    our forefathers in the usa even mentioned you can't trust people to make judgements. that's why we don't have a democracy.

    Democrats have been saying "Our Democracy is at stake" so long that Republicans actually say it now.
    I point out regularly to Dems an Republicans that our form of Government is " a Constitutional Representative Republic " and not a "Democracy ".
