Beef prices should go up, along with all meat prices, to reflect their ecosystemic toll. The problem is basic staples are also expensive.

Absolutely this. Essential food should not be expensive. Meat, especially red meat, should be quite expensive and something you only eat rarely

Won't this threaten your livelihood?

We should all ask for things that benefit the whole even if they would be detrimental to our individual selves.

I applaud my comrade

yeah stop the corn and soybean subsidies and actually charge ranchers for letting their cattle graze on federal land and then the price will reflect what the real price of meat is.

Why is meat so much cheaper here in east asia anyway? I can get tenderloin for ~6USD/lb.
