Republicans want your brain to rot

The only explanation for this is that they want Americans so brain damaged that we keep voting Republican:

The Bush administration said Tuesday it will fight to keep meatpackers from testing all their animals for mad cow disease.

The Agriculture Department tests fewer than 1 percent of slaughtered cows for the disease, which can be fatal to humans who eat tainted beef. A beef producer in the western state of Kansas, Creekstone Farms Premium Beef, wants to test all of its cows.

Does it make any kind of sense that they are going to "fight" to stop a company from doing additional testing? We seriously live in a fucking dystopia.
