RFK Jr. explains why Bill Gates and China are allowed to buy farmland in the U.S. https://t.co/KCFvFGP57z

Video Transcript AI Summary

I'm here to discuss why companies like Gates and China are buying up farmland. I spent years suing factory farms, including Smithfield Foods, the largest pork producer. Smithfield came to North Carolina and, with a partner, created large-scale hog warehouses, dropping pork prices from 60¢ to 2¢ a pound. This put 28,000 independent hog farmers out of business, replaced by 2,200 factories controlled by or contracted to Smithfield. Farmers became like serfs on their own land, losing control over their practices. Smithfield dictated everything. Because of the price drop in North Carolina, Iowa had to adopt the same system. Eventually Smithfield controlled 80% of US hog production and then sold itself to China. Now China owns a large part of our hog production, threatening Thomas Jefferson's vision of a democracy rooted in independent family farms. This industrial agriculture gives us substandard food and threatens American democracy.

Speaker 0: Hey, everybody. Here I am in Sherwood, Connecticut on Sherwood Island. Here's a little woodchuck haul. Shirley Trubidore asked the question about why Gates and China are being allowed to buy up all the farmland in our country. And I'm gonna tell you something that I had an experience with. I spent many years, about twenty years, suing the factory farms, the big hog farms, and big chicken producers like Tyson and Bo Pilgrim and Frank Perdue. But Smithfield Foods was the biggest pork producer. And Smithfield came to the state of of North Carolina. They built a slaughterhouse that could process 30,000 pigs a day. And then they had a partner named Wendell Murphy who was in the state senate, and he passed 28 laws in the North Carolina state senate making it illegal to sue a factory farm. He left and went into partnership with Smithfield, created a way to raise pigs instead of raising them on farms to raise them in warehouses called Murphy eleven hundreds. And they they dropped the price of pork from 60¢ a pound to 2¢ a pound. It put out of business all 28,000 independent hog farmers in the state of North Carolina, and it replaced them with 2,200 factories, all of them either owned by Smithfield or contracted to Smithfield. The only farmers who could stay in business were farmers who's that signed that contract with Smithfield to to mortgage their homes, to put those big hog sheds, the Murphy eleven hundreds on their property, and then they lose all control. They become serfs on their own land. Smithfield dictates all their farming practices. It gives them the food. It tell it delivers the the piglets, picks up the the grown animals, and brings them to slaughter. They put out of business 28,000 farmers, and a control now of 80% of the pollock production in North in North Carolina. Because they dropped the price in North Carolina, Iowa had to adopt the same system, had to cave in to Smithfield. They ended up taking control of 80% of the hog production in our country. Then they sold themselves to China. So now China owns all that hog production in America, and it controls our landscapes. And that's the end of Thomas Jefferson's vision of an American democracy rooted in tens of thousands of independent freeholds, each one owned by family farmers, each with a stake in our system of government. And that's why all of this industrial agriculture not only gives us substandard food, but they're also taking control of our landscapes, and that is a huge threat to American democracy. I hope you guys
