Beef prices surged to an all-time high in July as the market grappled with consistently strong demand and long-term issues in domestic production.
According to the latest consumer price index, which the Bureau of Labor Statistics published on Tuesday, the beef and veal index rose by 2.5% in July, compared to 0.2% for the broader food category. This capped an 11.3% increase over the past 12 months.
Meanwhile, the price of ground beef and uncooked beef steaks has risen by 11.5% and 12.4%, respectively, both now at record levels.
No. That sounds awful. The rest of us wouldn’t be able to talk at all admidst the constant lecturing…

I was thinking more along the “pro-life” misrepresentation they claim to have.
Conservatives who advocate for the lives of the animals would actually make them “pro-life” in a sense. Some of them do oppose the death penalty.
