[QUOTE="rocfarm, post: 1780718, member: 42715"] A bit too hardcore IMO, but can understand how American culture may have always been mainly this way. In spite of some of the things we were sold as younger folks from the podiums of democracy, it seems that-especially the higher up the education/income chain one goes-the more pure self interest seems to guide decision making. It took me a while, but I think I can now accept this is how things will usually be. But for me, it’s still about trying to have goodwill towards my land, animals, buyers, and the final consumer, and make a profit. In short, I’d like to see everyone sustainably benefit. Still struggling to bring this mindset to my day job as well. To some this may seem counterintuitive (especially in the chaotic modernity/massification paradigm of today’s America), but so far it’s worked for my wife and I to have this worldview. Have to admit it’s been tough since the pandemic chaos came, though. But hopeful things will work out. Thanks again for the opinions and blessings on y’all’s cattle decisions-including the Pharo folks! May they prove us naysayers wrong should it be what the future needs:). [/QUOTE]
