A Deeply Pro Trump Town In Nebraska Is Losing 3,200 Jobs Due To His Economic Policies And Residents Are "Sobbing" In Disbelief

These folks voted for a guy who has spent his entire career stiffing contractors and deregulating corporations, and now they are shocked when the material consequences of those policies hit their own backyard.

It is the classic conservative cognitive dissonance: they probably think the "leopards" only eat the faces of the people in the cities or the immigrants they were told to hate. But capital does not care about your loyalty or your vote; it only cares about the bottom line. Trump's populism was always an aesthetic, not an economic plan, and now Lexington is paying the price for buying into the grift.

Either way, this is deeply devastating for the people who live there, and I do feel sorry for what their going through.

Well, contrary to the shallow, irrelevant appeal to emotion, fluff piece foisted by MS NOW and parroted by Maze in the OP, this closure has nothing to do with anything Trump has done or not done and everything to do with the beef market both in the US and globally.

* The Nebraska plant was outdated and inefficient. Tyson decided it was cheaper to close and consolidate operations than upgrade the plant.

* There are just four companies in the US that process almost 90% of the beef sold: Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and National Beef. This creates something close to a monopoly situation where market prices are easily controlled by processors. This has existed for decades.

* Other factors like feed costs being up due in large part to greentard polices under Biden, play a big role along with environmental factors like drought, disease (Mexican screwworm resurgence), etc.

The combination of declining supply and increased costs has made it where this plant in Nebraska is no longer profitable for Tyson, so they're closing it and consolidating operations. They've offered many workers at it jobs elsewhere.



So, maybe MS NOW should be blaming the real culprits here: Leftist greentards and their insane push for what doesn't work, nature for variations that go into such businesses, and a push by the Left for decades to get Americans to stop eating beef while using corn to make ethanol that does nothing to help the environment.

Fuck MS NOW and their shit reporting. If it was Trump's fault fine. But blaming him for decades of bad decisions mostly coming from the Left does nothing to explain the issue or how to fix it.

Notice how no one even attempts to justify the claim that this is Trumps fault.
 
What a shit response by T. A. Read the last two paras, all fluff opinion with no sourcing or development of why "Leftist greentards" are failures.

He does what he demonizes.

What a moronic commentary from a mentally unhinged dumbass on steroids with severe TDS.

This has NOTHING to do with Tariffs you incoherent babbling buffoon.

Tyson Faces Continued Losses In The Beef Business

There has long been excess capacity in the meat business nationwide, meaning the nation’s slaughterhouses could handle many more cattle than they are processing. That has only been made worse in recent years as the government has encouraged more smaller companies to open slaughterhouses to compete with Tyson and the other giants that dominate the beef business.

Tyson expects to lose more than $600 million on beef production this year after already reporting $720 million of red ink in beef over the past two years.

Tonsor said it was inevitable that at least one beef plant would close. Afterward, Tyson’s remaining plants will be able to operate more efficiently at closer to full capacity.

Ernie Goss, an economist at Creighton University in Omaha, said the Lexington plant likely wasn’t measuring up in the industry increasingly reliant on technological advancements that enhance productivity.

It’s very difficult to renovate or make the old plant fit the new world,” said Goss, who completed an impact study for a new Sustainable Beef plant. The Lexington facility “just wasn’t competitive right now in today’s environment in terms of output per worker.”

First, ethanol production puts pressure on corn prices.

Many countries, especially the USA and Brazil, have encouraged biofuel production by offering various subsidies and tax advantages

As the demand for beef has not substantially changed or lowered, and the cost of raising cattle increased, both domestically and abroad, prices have shot up. In part these prices reflect the increased costs of feed and raising cattle in a market where the ingredients in cattle feed are in competition with green energy policies that drive up the cost of them.



So, yes, greentards are driving up beef costs and have been for a long time now. They aren't the only cause, but they are a serious and ongoing one.
