That was a spot on description of the “facsimile of work” that occurs inside the delusional, administrative state. Characterizing the worker substitutes “by the number” was a nice touch. Perhaps we could clone them in a giant factory lab (the “Aldous Huxley Labor Enhancement Facility”) to drive down Federal labor costs. My only question is, “Where does Mr. Haney fit in?”
There’s a sweetly, twisted irony to government pencil pushers “addressing issues” like ...”invasive pests.”
Stalin was convinced to collectivize farms and use the scientific agricultural methods of the day (which were a dismal failure--so much so, the Russians seized the crops of the Kulaks in the Ukraine, and starved millions by doing so.)
History repeats itself, and Duh-1 has already usurped the power to take whatever from whomever.

I just find it incredibly stupid of the nits in gummint who think they know the land better than those who have lived on it and farmed it for (often) 70 years or more.
It's arrogant, too, but that's what the whole honey boo boo, hicks from the sticks meme is about--showing the world how the fictional reality people are dumber than rocks out there in flyover country.
Ultimately, I think the agenda is to get farms to fail so the Ag giants can buy them up and then implement another phase of Agenda 21. That isn't paranoia if you live in flyover country, they have a plan to get us out of the boonies and into the cities where they think they can control us.
Your Freeper handle is a disturbing reminder of another “Joe”, Josip Stalin, and his vicious agricultural collectivization of Ukraine in 1932-33. The resulting famine, known as “Holomodor”, caused the deaths of as many as 10 million people. The complicity of the NY Times columnist, Walter Duranty is another factor in the tragedy. He wrote glowing dispatches as the Kulaks were annihilated. Ditto Mao and “The Great leap Forward.” Socialist central planners in collusion with a sychophantic media are no joke. So, when we consider Climate Hubs and the attending apparatciks, our laughter should be tempered with resolve.
Never keep all your grain in one bin, so to speak. The Russians took the seed set aside for the following season, which made the starvation even worse.
Now, they'd just sieze the crop and anything GMO that was stored for seed wouldn't produce.
One big difference...No 2nd Amendment for Kulaks. Lock and Load.
