[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 12609"] Seems to be a lot of talk about the need for stricter rules and regulations. I don't know that I would agree. You are talking about penalties for those that won't comply. We need to be careful. If Mad Cow doesn't put some of us out of business the rules and regulations might. We haven't even traced the source of the infected animal back to see how it may have been infected or where it came from. Maybe after the facts are revealed we can come up with a simple solution that won't be a burden, or infringe on the rights of the rancher. > I firmly believe we are going > attempt to have an ID program in > place very soon.I say attempt > because I am more than a little > concerned it is even possible.
