The Guardian reports that according to a Bureau of Investigative Journalism study, colistin, an "antibiotic of last resort," is used by the tonnes by Indian farms to make the poultry gain weight a little bit faster. And all of this is perfectly legal. The World Health Organization (WHO) calls antibiotic resistance "a major threat to public health".
Another reason to eat less meat I guess. Like we needed one.

Our H-1B program is a disaster. Right now, widespread abuse in our immigration system is allowing American workers of all backgrounds to be replaced by workers brought in from other countries to do the same job, sometimes for lesser pay. People don't like to say this, it's not politically correct, but most of the H-1B folks come in from India, they're Indians. And President Obama said they get to bring their wives. A guy comes over, his wife comes over. And baby makes three, four, five -- you get so many anchor babies, and suddenly there's a lot of Indians living in America.
Jobs must be offered to American workers first. Does that make sense? Our H-1B program should include only the most skilled and highest-paid applicants and should never, ever be used to replace American workers. I've ordered a full review of our H-1B program, from many departments. I ordered them to make a full report to me. Let's buy American & hire American.

But what about all that wonderful food served in Indian restaurants. Without Indians there would be no Indian restaurants. I guess the realDonaldTrump is only fixated on BigMacs.
It's really quite a simple choice: Life, Death, or Los Angeles.

They make terrific American food all over the world. Japan, they have a great cheeseburger, they named a cheeseburger after me. The Trumpburger. Such an honor!
