I may agree with you. Maybe a "slaughter tax" would be in line for National Beef and Excel. For every animal they slaughter, they pay 12.5 cents to the county and city, making a total of 25 cents.
Hell, at that rate we could do away with property tax.
Together the plants slaughter over (at a minimum) 10,000 head a day. If I'm thinking right that would be about $2,500 a day in taxes comimg into the city and county coffers. Just think how much of that money they could waste.
