    Like, what would it take to begin transitioning a substantial amount of our meat production to lab grown meat? It would massively reduce the amount of greenhouse gasses we produce from industrial farming, but the public is kinda terrified of new things they don’t understand, and there’s an awful lot of money in industrial meat production.

    We can’t call that the Kill Meat Act, despite how tempting the irony. It would have to be called something friendly and enticing that everyone would want. The Happy Cows Act or something.

      That’s not anything that’s going to happen now. No presidential candidate is going to care about that.

        That’s not what I was saying. I was just agreeing with your point about how bills need attractive names to get passed.
