[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1362171, member: 1682"] Producers have lost money for years. So many stabilize their income with off-farm jobs that majority don't understand what your talking about when you can't pay the utility bill or property taxes because calf prices aren't high enough - they have no concept of the struggle to survive. I don't know if I got .80 for anything in 2005. Maybe the best steers. Heifers were in the .60 range and cows were .10-.30. Just glad I didn't get crazy with the spending during these last couple of years. Two years of hard prices will wipe out a lot of the young guys in the industry. Lots of land and shiny metal has been bought in that time. It's the start of the cowboy races. :cowboy: Grab the tail of your best cow and see if you can make it through to the other side. [/QUOTE]
