[QUOTE="MO_cows, post: 1177949, member: 9169"] I already boycott Discover! When they were new, they sent us a "pre approved" offer. We decided to try the card, liked the idea of getting something back. They turned us down, guess it wasn't pre approved after all. Never was able to learn why. We had good credit, could finance cars in a snap and so forth. Ticked me off. They didn't need us, we didn't need them either. Over the years they sent us a lot of other offers for a Discover card. I tried to wad everything they mailed us into their postage paid return envelope and let them pay the postage to get it back! From the other side of the table, managing a merchant account, I always avoided taking Discover because their fees are higher. That's how they "cash back" their customers, they take it from the merchants! Until the most recent web site update, that is, Discover was "bundled" with Visa and Mastercard. Bummer. Unfortunately, the animals rights extremists are a lot better at the propaganda war than the ag sector. They have no shame, they will distort things or out and out lie to suit their purpose. Just like those calf hutches, photographed from the most unflattering angle, to look like the calves live in darkness and isolation. And since humane treatment of animals has become part of political correctness, all these companies want that for their image, their brand. It's an uphill battle. More producers need to blog and get their side of things out there for the media to find. And, back to Carrie Underwood, I wonder how many pills and supplements she takes now, as a pregnant vegetarian, or is she vegan? [/QUOTE]
