Ranchhand: "SH, you have been told that NCBA was the big push on the watered down M" price reporting. Why do you keep putting R-calf on it? The law R-calf wanted was watered down by the NCBA group so it was worthless. How can we believe you when you are wrong so often."
Oh sure, blame NCBA for your dependency on government mandates. That's what you blamers do best. Just like prohibiting "M"ID from "M"COOL than blaming USDA for their inability to enforce your flawed law which exempted 75% of the imports. Same level of intellect!
It's easier saying I am wrong than proving it isn't it?
I totally opposed any form of GOVERNMENT MANDATED PRICE REPORTING. I don't care whether it comes from R-CALF or the NCBA. As far as I'm concerned, it's none of your damn business what I get for my fat cattle and reporting a price without reporting the value that price was based on is nothing more than "socialized marketing" embraced and endorsed by the Livestock Marketing Police.
You government mandate lovers are leading this industry down the primrose path. It's too bad you won't realize it until the train wreck.
Nobody ever blamed their way to prosperity.
