    I would do that also but I'm a fair touch from Minnesota and I am looking here in Washington for people that need to "move" an animal but not having much luck so far.....any body knows someone I'm all ears. I really dont like seeing food go to waste and to me that's what they are just like my unnamed chickens, food not pets.

    Let the government buy them from the farmers, then load them on merchant ships and give them to starving countries.

    That's true, sell live hogs to China.
    A Chinese company owns Smithfield Foods.

    Or just wait a while and see that in a few months the people in the US are the ones starving due to idiocy, incompetence and a century of government interference.
