What we need is what we have. In one part of the country there are miles and miles of mega beef feedlots. In another long rows of pork buildings. Chicken barns in another. These are what we need for our food, not bees.

Right you are Mayor, and in addition all the food necessary to make meat (wheat, corn, rice, soybeans, etc.) don't rely on bees for pollination. Humans won't die if all the bees are wiped out - just like we're still here and all the dinosaurs are gone.

No, this thread was about ants - and what happens to males with the "Queen". It reminds me to be grateful that Hillary Clinton is not president.
Sorry to disappoint, but if you want to talk about "pollen" (a disgusting topic that involves the spilling of seed) you're free (so far) to start your own thread.
