CNS Keeps Fretting Over High Beef Prices, Still Won't Explain Why They're High
Topic: CNSNews.com

Ali Meyer writes in a March 24 CNSNews.com article:

The average price of a pound of ground beef climbed to another record high in February, hitting $4.238 per pound, according to data released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).

In August 2014, the average price for a pound of all types of ground beef topped $4 for the first time, hitting $4.013, according to the BLS.

But as she with a similar story last month, Meyer failed to explain why ground beef prices are high: a years-long drought in Texas and the Midwest that shrank the U.S. cattle herd in 2014 to its smallest size since 1952.

Last year, Meyer wrote several CNS articles on high beef prices that all failed to explain why it is so.

Instead, Meyer wants to suggest that the Obama administration is somehow to blame for this. Last time we checked, Obama doesn't control the weather, however much some right-wingers might think so.
