CWB system is padding the pockets of U.S. grain companies

[Fransisco]

Vader, Agstar, Burbert, Bennyhin? Anyone?

Come on guys, it's time to start the spin machine.

Tell us all about how the numbers aren't real because they didn't come out of Gray's theoretical mathematical model.

For two long I have said this is happening (trip south Late October US price Durum 5.75 US a bushel) All my durum shipped to Agricor united shipped to minneapolis to ADM CWB pays me $2.72 bushel for #2 freight off CWB supporters explain please in all your wisdom. ITS NOT JUST A SPOT MARKET WE ARE SUPPLYING THEM THEIR NEEDS IN A SHORT MARKET.

Perhaps you could get someone from the Winnipeg Grain Exchange to explain it to you. Grain trading seems to be beyond your comprehension, otherwise "why the questions"?

If you want knowledge...seek the knowledgeable to learn from.

[Fransisco]

I think its happening all the time. The only thing the board staff know how to do is price below the market.

In an open market competition disciplines all the players.

Who disciplines the board? No one.

[Fransisco]

There you go, Willagro is perfectly happy to subsidize US grain companies at his and your expense.

[wd9]

Just happy to be doing my part in making sure share values stay up. After all corporations are people too.

Chuckchuck said in a previous thread "Don't you think it would be wise to consider the overall price consequences of an open market? Individual freedoms are important but responsibilty to the rest of producers is also very important."

Consequences, indeed lets consider them.

Responsibility to producers, indeed lets consider them.

And add to the list.

Responsibility to US grain companies.

Why do you even bother?

Fransisco <b>has</b> the knowledge. In case you didn't see it for yourself, he wasn't asking anyone to explain it, he was <b>challenging</b> you CWB-supporters to explain it - using CWB-speak.

(By the way, its now called the Winnipeg <b>Commodity</b> Exchange...you're showing your age...)

I am going to assume that grain trading is beyond your comprehension, otherwise "why the insipid rhetoric"?

[craig]

well said chaffmeister.

[wilagro]

Well, I DID know that the questions were asked in a rhetorical fashion. I was just twisting them back to him.

Big deal.

I still don/t know why you "anti's" are always asking the "pros" for answers when the CWB or the WCE have all of the answers...ask them for gosh sake.
