According To Daniel Greenfield:
"D.C. is the ultimate big government town. Food doesn't grow there. A swamp does. The USDA, under Trump, is trying to actually move personnel closer to where food does grow."
Sounds like a plan! Move the 'regulators' out to where they can see the results of all their 'hard work' up close and personal. The feedback loop is considerably shorter when they are there among their charges.
Predictably: "Employees, congressional Democrats and a bipartisan coalition of former USDA leaders" have warned that the move "would devastate the two agencies," per the Post. ERS and NIFA have both recently unionized and some "union officials have promised to fight the move."
Looking at the list of detractors, it seems like a good move!
