    Interesting expose on packer profiteering

    AB5 was talking about the razor thin margins the packers operated on. Listen to Corbitt Wall a well respected cattle reporter out of the US detail the travesty that happened late last week/early this week after a Tyson packing plant fire. An indication of the type of business that calls the shots in the cattle sector.

    Highlights the fact of how great a group R-CALF is for representing the common producer. Flashback 16 years ago, they were not our enemy - the Canadian government was.

    Unfortunately we don't have any such group in Canada. Just a lot of groups of ****ing morons who whine for more check-off money. Seems like everyday there is a new group started that wants their cut. And all they talk about is where they can get government handouts for producers, rather than enacting policy change.

    Sonny Perdue said it best. ****ing whiners.
