With the recent news report of China rejecting a huge shipment of beef from Argentina coinciding with the announcement that President Donald Trump has agreed to purchase a tariff-free shipment of beef from Argentina, maybe we should demand of all beef sellers in this country that they provide proof that the beef they are selling was produced in this country.

We must start to take reasonability for our own safety, because it has been made quite apparent that we can no longer put any trust in our federal agencies to care for or look out for us.
