The farmers outside California will not go to the expense to meet California's new requirements. If they can't sell it there, then there will be a surplus in the rest of the country. That means bacon and pork prices should drop here.

I don't see all pig farmers adopting the burdensome and expensive changes for their entire herds.
I think the farmers who sell heavily to CA will create limited areas to raise compliant pigs and jack up the prices to their CA customers. The prices for the rest of the country will remain pretty much as they are.
Yours is a more likely solution, given that California supposedly consumes 42% of US pork products. No one can afford to right off that much market, especially if they can raise the prices and blame the new law. But I like my idea better and hope a few farmers are fed up with the California attitudes.Excaliber wrote: Tue Aug 03, 2021 8:05 amAlternative possibility:srothstein wrote: Sun Aug 01, 2021 10:47 pm I guess I am the only one that saw this and said "hmmm, bacon prices are going down."

Of all the disturbing things coming out of Cali I decided to follow-up with this one. It seems as though they dismissed all charges against the attacker with the bottle due to lack of sufficient evidence he was the attacker.philip964 wrote: Mon Dec 07, 2020 11:03 pm https://news.yahoo.com/san-francisco-of ... 04927.html
Officer seriously wounds man beating him with vodka bottle that fractured his scull.
Grand jury indicts officer for deadly assault.
Man who was breaking into homes and police cars and beating the officer has not been charged.
The victim in this police assault was in a
“crisis state due to a pre-existing behavioral health condition"
Thus the situation was not handled correctly by summoning a mental crisis team.
The DA won the election by promising to do this sort of thing.
Good news victim had to have leg amputated, no doubt San Fransisco taxpayers will pay a hefty settlement to this amputee.
Which just shows that he did not pay any attention to the SCOTUS ruling this week. One of the reasons the abortion law was written that way was to stop lawsuits to declare it unconstitutional. SCOTUS said the lawsuits could go forward. They emphatically did not rule for or against the law itself, just that the state can still be sued to stop it. I expect those suits to go forward, while the answer to the case in Mississippi may change that.philip964 wrote: Sun Dec 12, 2021 10:08 am https://www.latimes.com/california/stor ... lt-weapons
Newsome calls for legislation similar to Texas Abortion Bill for Black semi automatic rifles.
Didn't I just hear about a similar thing happening somewhere just a week or so ago. They had the guy at emergency room and wouldn't treat him inside because he had not been vaxed. That guy died of heart failure as well.philip964 wrote: Mon Dec 20, 2021 10:29 pm https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2 ... ovid-rule/
Patient in nursing home is in cardiac arrest. Nurses are performing chest compressions. They don’t have a defibrillator ( what $800 ). Paramedics with a defibrillator are at the entrance to the nursing home. But they won’t come in due to CA Covid regulations. Patient dies. A review of CA Covid regulations show they didn’t get the new memo.
