    Call me sceptical but I doubt a fiction book published ~120 years ago predicted the recall of 167000 pounds of meat in 2026 and then went further to outline how it was directly related to the recent deregulation by the Trump administration.

    Perhaps you’d like to be a little more verbose and expand on this comment?

      it was in reference to the point that this is not new. yes, you are correct in that it is not a direct source, but instead i took it as a chance to recommend one of my favorite books.
