Is competition a good thing?

That has nothing to do with closeing the border to Canadian beef <although they dont say much about exporting to countries like Japan>and to have the government say which Americans can own cattle.
LOL Read the R-calf web site and read about the slippery slopes they want to go down.

Not following the rules of trade robertmac talked about is the government saying which americans can own cattle, Roper. It happens economically.
Just think about who is owning more and more of them.
It is not the little guy.
All price suppression via market power will concentrate the markets in the hands of the few.
