Western Seducer reporter urges producers to question their devotion to conservatives

[blackpowder]

I read a book the other day. It was a series of interviews in 1954 of German soldiers at Normandy in 44. German interviewer happened to have interviewed same men in Mar 44 for German news and propaganda. Actually great unbiased interviews.
1 man out of the 20 actually got repulsed by realizing later what they were really doing in France at the time. Subjugation.
The others were still okay with their known to be false beliefs of the time. Unification.

I'm trying to understand how some farmers can't see themselves as ridiculous when looking back. How a false set of beliefs could be defended as even believable at the time.
Perhaps the fact that it's the same individuals all the time is evidence of a particular personality rather than intelligence or evidence.
Covid, climate, and now someone dusted off the old 78 on the gramophone.
Un-freaking-believable.

Wheat prices fell across all major exporting countries since last month’s WASDE with improved
winter wheat conditions in several key production regions. Furthermore, some importers are delaying
purchases awaiting the upcoming harvest in anticipation of lower new crop prices. The biggest reduction
over the past month has been for Russia, where crop prospects have improved and export quotes have
eased amid the current export policies, including the announcement of floating taxes for the new crop
year. Its quotes are currently the most competitive. EU quotes have also eased and remain slightly
above Russia. Argentine quotes have fallen modestly with slowing farmer sales. Australian quotes have
edged somewhat lower with new supplies but remain supported by strong demand from Asian markets.
Quotes from Canada are currently the highest among major suppliers. USDA RELEASE APR 09


WARD WEISENSEL FOR SASK WHEAT - OCTOBER 2020

Only a single seller of the product can price differentiate to extract a greater portion of a
customer’s willingness to pay which was the case for wheat, durum and barley with the
operation of the CWB prior to the regulatory changes enacted in 2012. In that era, many
customers were paying premiums for Canadian wheat and durum relative to what they would
have had to pay for similar quality U.S. spring wheats and durums. That said, many customers
were not willing to pay premiums as the market for high quality spring wheat and durum is
limited. As a result, in order to clear the market, a significant volume of grain would be traded at values at a discount to U.S. values as that is what it took to sell the grain that was offered for
sale by farmers to the CWB at the time.

The CWB failed in the end because the majority of the BOD were morons.

Becomes painfully obvious on here

They were no good at marketing wheat.
They had oats on the quota system but they didn't market many.
Nobody grew them as you had to store for years for terrible prices.
They ended up with all the shit barley that the feeders didn't want. Shipped half way around the world to shithole countries on some kind of kickback never never payment plan.
The government marketing your grain for you.
What could go wrong?

[the big wheel]

Bahahaha you guys have short memories
As in like last year and likely this year
Oh your grain has fuzz oh this oh that
But all going in the same bin but different
Guys getting different prices going into
The same bin. And that came straight from
A retired worker!

No Cgc oversight no nothing all power
Gone to the buyers.
It’s better though at least you get screwed
Right away and don’t have to Waite a year.
