Florida House Republican Ryler Sirois introduced a new bill on Monday, aiming to make it illegal to manufacture, sell, hold, or distribute lab-grown meat within the state.
The legislation mandates that any entity looking to sell lab-grown meat in the state must obtain future authorization from the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, allowing the department to adopt rules governing the use of lab-grown meat in the state.
Likely they want to pose a different tax on lab meat than other meat. Doing so usually is to provide a method to pander to farmer votes later on down the road. It’s like the reason things like corn subsidies seem to just never go away.
So this just looks like the person is creating a new card for the deck of cards to be played during elections. But I guess “woke” can be in there too if that plays well to his base.
Hey guys ready for an “old” Republican talking point?
“We don’t pick winners and losers!” “The liberals want to pick who does well and who fails!”
Yeah, just like 99.9% of what they say, it’s all bullshit meant to serve their immediate purposes (bashing the left) and then tossed away when it would impede their desired outcome.
The article has the who, what, when, where, but not the ever important why.
Ah. There it is. I guess I’m to assume lab grown meat is somehow “woke” (or something of equal or greater bullshit)?
The “why” is certainly that someone in the state beef industry gave him a pile of money.
Actually it looks to be a regulatory grab.

Not just bullshit, but also complete projection on their part.
