    None of us have ever said that there aren't limits to what can be done at a particular time of year.

    The point is that the market is much better at determining what should happen when and for how much than any central planning bureaucracy ever will be.

    Those spot prices in North Dakota, Montana and Ontario keep showing it time and again. Less regulation = more money in farmers pockets.

    And it doesn't require BennyHins consent for it to be true.

      By the way what is stopping you from posting prices when its the other way around?

      Oh yeah, nothing.

      And what is stopping you and all of your like minded NFU friends from organizing your own little Canadian Canola Board, or Canadian Oat Board or heck go all the way a Canadian Grain Board?

      Again nothing, you are perfectly free to do so in this country. No one would stop you, no one would put you in jail.

      The reason you don't, is because you know in straight head to head competition your ideology doesn't translate into more money in farmers bank accounts.

        Hey Benny not bad at all.

        I hadn't realized it before but you've got two logical fallacies going on at the same time. You've presented a 'false dilema' as a 'straw dog'.

        You get extra points for that!

          Franny,

          Benny wrote,

          "We realize the most efficient marketing system is to have a mixture of private enterprise along with strong farmer control of grain marketing, policy and logistics."

          Sooo... Benny has a 'false dilema' as a 'straw dog', and an admission that competition and choice is the best solution.

          "Strong farmer control of grain marketing, policy and logistics" is most effectively achieved in a situation like we were in with barley July 30/07... and proof Benny is right came August first as prices crashed AFTER barley growers lost control of their own marketing logistics!

                Franny/Incog/Wedino/sumdumguy/Chaff, etc:


                "We" are the majority of farmers that understand the bigger picture unlike idealogs like you. By the way, I'm not a member of the NFU. What memberships to you belong to Franny? heh heh.

                Sueweeeeee.

                  That's funny all the CWB surveys say the majority want choice and competition. Just like the plebiscite.
