[QUOTE="sillco, post: 27905, member: 42"] I guess there is a struggle between the NCBA and R-Calf as to who the beef industry should cater to. The NCBA looks at the entire beef industry, including imports and large corporate interest while R-Calf looks out for US beef producers. Troy Marshall seems to think NCBA is totaly correct. The corporations are the answer to all marketing systems and should be supported by all cattle producers. His statements support the total corporate international trade program that repersents only 10% of our production in this country. I am a member of NCBA, but I don't always agree with them on all issues. I disagree ith NCBA on the COOL issue. I think it will promote US produced beef. There argument is that only a small amount of beef offered in the meat case is not US produced beef. I still think if a consumer knows which is which they will pick US produced over imported beef most of the time and they will be willing to pay more for it. As for as the Corporations go, I think they have gotten too strong and are influencing our govermant and our way of like in this country is being treathened We are loosing the middle class and that is what makes America strong.
