[QUOTE="cmf1, post: 1181236, member: 6681"] Thoughtful, informative, and, from what I have read from you on these boards, I would bet very honest assessment. It's a crying shame that something like this post will never be seen by the general public ( as an alternate point of view ) that has been conditioned to believe that every industry not owned by the government is out to do dirty deeds and rape and pillage the world. The abuse that feedlots have been subjected to at the hands of the media is criminal. They take the absolute worst players or circumstances of the game and represent them as the standard or norm. Never suggesting that those worst particular conditions and outcomes are an anomoly in an otherwise reputable industry simply trying to deliver a product at a profit. Bad news keeps people tuned in to the car ads and cell phone ads. Good news does not require repeating. Ever notice the delighted gleam in their eye when there is a possible life threatening hurricane in the Atlantic? That's 3-10 days increased ad revenue depending on the severity and damage. ( which they feed on like a cancer. ) Sorry about my rant. :mad: Thank you for the post Milkmaid. [/QUOTE]
