THE HOLLOW HERD
"Where's the Beef? It used to be a funny slogan. Now it is a haunting economic question."
We are witnessing the deliberate hollowing out of an American way of life—where the national cattle inventory has plummeted to its lowest levels since 1951, yet corporate meatpacker cartel profits have reached all-time records. The Hollow Herd is a 15-track forensic sonic audit tracing independent rancher insolvency, algorithmic futures manipulation, the $40B Argentine import deal, and the fight for food sovereignty.
