    Is that a government for ants?!?

    No dude there’s experts, specialists, entire departments within any (?) human government that knows shit, talks with experts, calculate and runs stuff.

    They don’t just wait for farmers to walk up and explain what vegetables are.

    And why would you think it’s normal that cigarette companies are at this whymsical table? Why put cancer inducing products in a debate with food with baby politicians that knows nothing and wait for the “debate” to play out?

      No this is normal.

      Yes there are departments for healthcare, having reports full of stats, that no politician will ever read, lobbying can bring attention to demetia and bring some context to the data.

      They don’t just wait for farmers to walk up and explain what vegetables are.

      Correct, but they want farmers to come up and talk to them about problems that they see that might be missed, for example, how young people can be encouraged to go into farming, or if there is something killing the crops that they can see faster than the governments experts can write a report about.

      And why would you think it’s normal that cigarette companies are at this whymsical table?

      Because they are a huge industry.

      Because farmers need money, and if tobacco pays more than wheat, then the farmer will farm tobacco.

        You are blind to so many options…

        They ignore the reports? So why would they not ignore the “people”? Because money? Then it’s just corruption and the policy won’t reflect any genuine need.

        Why being a “huge industry” has any political weight? Drugs cartel move tons of money, do they get a say in the matter too?
