No. Subsidies are inherently inefficient and paternalistic.

It is not anyone's "duty" to help any livestock, ****wit. There is no
morally compelling reason for livestock to exist at all, and if they do
exist, it is no consumer's moral "duty" to do something to "help" them.
You're still just pretending, anyway, ****wit. You don't really care
about livestock; you only care about the products that come from them.

Meaningless. It is not "better" that livestock animals "get to

You've *NEVER* discussed this with any farmer, you ****ing cracker liar.

No, bad. Reasonable and thoughtful people value natural habitats that
include predators. Stupid religious-bull****-spewing crackers don't.

No, it's impractical, full stop, for *everyone* to be able to eat
grass-fed beef. There isn't enough grassland.
