Mike, I'm sorry if you are not involved in an organization you can proudly support and defend against false attacks.
Why do you always group NCBA in with USDA and packers?
While we NCBA members do see value in learning about and working with government (it is a fact of life, after all!) and business (and packing plants are necessary to cattle producers, after all!).
That does NOT result in NCBA supporting everything either of the others does! It means that we can learn from one another, and inform them about the cattle part of the cattle/beef industry with a broad vision, rather than wearing "producer only" blinders.
