I'll disagree with you Cattleman.  ocm's post is correct.  This issue is NOT cattle prices as those who can not see the big picture think. The issue is NOT Canada.  This issue is the USDA putting the entire industry at risk by bending to the will of big business and of the judicial system making precident that says the US Government will no longer be held accountable for their actions and are to be simiply given deference.  I'd have to say R-CALF is looking at a very big picture.
