        Cook’s Venture (an Arkansas poultry processor) went bankrupt practically overnight. Then the state came in and killed all the chickens at each farm, leaving the farmers to deal with all the dead and rotting corpses.

        What did our wonderful governor do? Well, as I recall, her administration refused to declare a state of emergency and pretty much told all the poultry farmers to go fuck themselves because it’s “not the government’s job to bail out private businesses” or some bullshit like that.

        Doesn’t feel so good when you’re the one getting told to fuck off. I hope all the people who voted for Trump and Sarah Sanders are happy since this is exactly what they voted for.

          “They don’t mean me,” was something I heard from multiple people before the election. One was an immigrant who is a citizen.

      They probably didn’t, seeing as aside from Miller, they’re figures from past administrations.
