ABP's fiscal cliff

[grassfarmer]

Was reading yesterday how ABP are facing their own
"fiscal cliff" if the $1 non-refundable part of the levy
is discontinued at the end of March. It served as a
reminder that it's time to reclaim your levy for July-
December sales if you are so inclined. Not saying we
should push them over but maybe if they were to
stand a little closer to the edge a little wind might
come along and help us - lets call it "the wind of
change" lol.

Many of our school boards are on the edge also.
The government has been forcing them to use up
their reserves, soon they won't have them to
cover their costs and our rural schools will be
faced with impossible choices.

Government wants us all living hand to mouth,
paycheque to paycheque... This way we will
always be lined up for their handouts...dare we
bite the hand that feeds us!

Kathy: Your school board will just raise your property taxes!
I make it like a religion to get my $2 back from the ABP.
On every front this organization will sell out farmers and ranchers!
This sell out organization needs to be eliminated! Hopefully in 2016?

Mabey they should get some of those gov grazing leases that they fight so hard to defend and then they can be real welfare cowboys.
Kathy those poor schoolboards I just heard on the news they gave themselves an 8% increase and more for the chair who now gets $30 thou and $50 thou respectivly. OOOO boo ho for them
