[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 601189, member: 97"] Not sure if it will happen- but it is promising, for me anyway, to see our USDA and Justice Dept. finally using anti-trust laws to challenge the takeover by JBS Brazil of a major part of our feeding and packing industry... Maybe they are learning after all these bailouts of these "too big to allow fail" Corporations why these laws were put on the books.. :???: Its also encouraging to see a new administration moving into D.C. that strongly supports M-COOL and the Packer Ban on Ownership of cattle (captive supply) and that has at least indicated a strong support of USA first and the need for us to get off our dependence on everything imported- and opposition to some of those one way trade agreements.. I guess we will have a better idea of where things will go when we get a new Secretary of Agriculture- but one thing that could really help the US market (and possibly Canadians if like normal their government would follow suit) is if the USDA drops their lawsuit and changes their direction on allowing those Packers like Creekstone to BSE test all beef... Then those countries like Korea and Japan- that want to send us all their products - wouldn't have a leg to stand on about why they refuse to take US (Canadian) beef.... [/QUOTE]
