[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 1523"] > Phil, if you will buy and read my > new book, you will never vote yes > again for the Beef-check-off. > "PAST,PRESENT and how we can > survive for the FUTURE in the beef > cattle business" I never said the Check-Off was perfect, but it's the only thing I see that we have going! As far as a vote I wish we would go ahead and have one so that we could put this behind us! As for the LMA action, they are against the check off but haven't suggested any kind of replacement! IMHO, without these funds, I believe that there are many groups that are against the beef industry ( and other food producing industries) and they simply don't care about facts, food or hunger! I believe the Check-off gives beef producers a war chest when these fringe groups attack the industry and that allows us to provide a source of funds to provide facts and show that beef, along with other food items are safe to our consumer! When you give me a possible program that will replace the Check-off with but assist in promoting beef at the same time I will be interested in seeing what is suggested! I don't believe, however, in turning off the water without and alternate source of water! Thanks, Phil in MS. [email=phil.swords@bxs.com]phil.swords@bxs.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
