[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1742288, member: 24816"] No one is denying that they have a lot of overhead expense. Infrastructure construction and maintenance, large number of employees, etc. They are so large that pretty much 4 companies have handle of nearly all cattle processed. They can spread that cost over a vast amount far more than cow calf or individual feeders can. Plus they are large multi faceted corporations, they are able to spread out losses and expenses over vast Investments. This is predatory capitalism at the very core. Nothing wrong with the concept of capitalism, but when a few entities are allowed to control and squeeze out would be competition that is a problem. We now have multinational corporations holding politicians in their pockets and controlling large sectors of our food supply. They have changed the industry and not for the better. [/QUOTE]
