Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill into law on Wednesday that bans the sale of lab-grown meat in the state as part of his administration’s commitment to having a “vibrant agriculture industry.”
Speaking at a press conference, DeSantis said that this bill was different than legislation he has signed in the past to protect the industry because this focuses on protecting it from “acts of man” that are rooted in an “ideological agenda” that wants to blame ranchers for climate change.
“These will be people who will lecture the rest of us about things like global warming, they will say that you can’t drive a internal combustion engine vehicle, they’ll say that agriculture is bad, meanwhile, they’re flying to Davos and their private jets,” he said. “This is really a vision of imposing restrictions on freedoms for everyday people while these elites are effectively pulling the strings, calling the shots, and doing whatever the hell they want to do in their own lives.”
DeSantis said that policies and vision that the World Economic Forum has for the world is “dead on arrival in the state of Florida.”
“We have fought it through standing up against things like Central Bank Digital Currency, where they want to be able to control your money; we fought against it by banning the Chinese Communist Party from purchasing land in the state of Florida; we have fought it by putting an end to woke banks denying or canceling financial services for Florida, just based on their political opinions; and we’ve also protected Floridians from government tracking of credit card transactions related to the purchase of firearms and ammunition,” he continued. “I think what they’re looking to do is create a social credit system. That’s what they have in China. And so your ability to participate in the economy, access credit, will be circumscribed by your ideological positions and your political positions.”
DeSantis said that the extreme agenda of the WEF, which includes having people eat bugs, has not taken root in Florida and that it’s also struggled to gain traction in many other states as well.
