I also forgot to tell you that you don't mention Sheep and girlfriends on this site in the same post. Things digress rather quickly and you could find your self banned from posting. :cowboy:

Conman: "I was talking to a Dominican whose family is big in banking and they were not too happy with CAFTA. They saw it as a threat of big U.S. business getting their way in their country. I guess you have had enough experience with that one."

Hahaha! So now you are making a case against CAFTA based on how it might hurt those in the Dominican????
HAHAHAHAHA!

Sandbag: "Can you explain why you would have a quota if you have free access? Wouldn't free access do away with quotas?"

They hadn't met their quotas so they still had free access. They were not restricted by quotas or tarriffs because they never met those quotas (ie "free access").

You and Conman and thanks for asking!

~SH~ said:Ok, I should have said "unfettered" or "unhindered" access rather than "free access". Your point is taken. Happy now?

In the Dec 9, 2005 edition of the Sandhills Cattle News, Ronna has an article about her attendance at the recent Range Cow Beef Symposium in Rapid City. She quotes Dr Gary Smith of Colo State, who said during a presentation that by the year 2030, developing countries will consume 42% more meat.
I'd prefer they buy beef, wouldn't you? May not be tenderloin or T bones, but we have lots of parts and pieces to sell them at a price that works.

Our competition is poultry and pork, not imports
Conman: "They have used the beef markets to make more money in pork and poultry."
Conman: "When they get the market control in beef that they have in poultry, the producer surplus will be wrung out of the industry, and you are helping them, SH."
Conman: "Sure, more beef will be sold, but the benefits of those extra sales will go to packers, not cattlemen."

No business is going to allow one of their entities to gain at the expense of another WHEN THEY ARE NOT THE ONLY PACKERS OUT THERE BUYING CATTLE. Your first falacy of the day.
