Conman your own words say you believe Tyson(IBP) was guilty of manipulation as per Pickett. (even though the courts say you are wrong).
In the Pickett case the best profit proven was $26 per head during that whole so called manipulation.
When the industry AVERAGE through the 90's was $3.88, there were times of loss.
Either you believe packers losing money is manipulation, or they can't make a profit without the so called manipulation.
You have stated small packers don't have the clout to manipulate markets. Yet some survive and no company can survive with continued sustained losses.
So answer the question of how small packers can be better at making a profit?
You also content Tyson will pressure small plants out of business. So now they can not only make money when Tyson can't but they can withstand Tyson's so called cheating.
You haven't held a rational position since you started posting here so I doubt you will be smart enough to even understand your own backwards theory.
Why would anyone expect a self proclaimed economics expert that doesn't even own cattle to know much about the industry?
I think SH might have been right when he suggested you could be Taylor from the Pickett trial.
