It was meant to be an example of the disaster that governments can make of something relatively simple.
You claim you're not calling for privatizing the DMV. So what are you calling for?
If you say "increased funding and more staffing with expanded benefits" then I will nod to that.
We can't afford that with our primary food supply. So if it was handed off to the government, extreme measures would need to be taken to ensure it's properly funded, managed by competent and qualified people, and well insulated from corruption. It's not as simple as "just let the government do it".
The current status quo is failing and more than that is cumulatively destroying the planet.
Saying "government intervention bad" over and over again is calling for more of the status quo. That's what a default position is if you condemn proposals to change it and say you "aren't calling for anything" otherwise.

I wasn't calling for anything. The conversation is about the meat industry, not about the DMV.
