Back to workers at a food distribution company in Atlanta were caught stealing 65 grand in chicken wings.
Who knows what they plan to deal with the pilfered poultry perhaps build a year out of chicken don't laugh Gregg Jarrett lives in one half -- well.
Well -- crisis for the apple are skyrocketing.
In our stupid government may be to blame according to the national chicken council.
Right get all my news from companies produce fewer birds last year due to record prices for chicken feed I eat corn.
Court costs -- the government requires 40% of the crop to be turned into fuel IE ethanol.
Now some might also blame global warming the default -- whatever you're trying to evade responsibility.
I still blame climate change for Jasper.
But you could also blame Obama except that ethanol subsidies were around before him.
But given that food prices are rising in fifty million Americans are food insecure it's time for the president to stop this madness.
Pricey -- hurts the war more that anyone watching the game.
And it's a bad idea that reflects a toxic thinking of green he's at the earth comes before earthlings which puts gas tanks before human -- So winds are now the edible equivalent of copper wiring what you steel to make a few extra bucks.

Which gets its money from oil reserves.
