I guess if I had to deal with the worst 10% of public everyday, I would be building a bunker, and making noises in the woods to attract something that I hoped existed...

Should they be the Canadian ones eh?

You would be correct "if" the feds charged more than the going rate, and they are not, in fact it's way below fair market value, hence the subsidy brand.
Here's the economic impact of the subsidized grazing industry.

Yeah, I bet the criminals would oblige with all these new laws.

Maple leafs will do the job. Gold is gold.

Close Hank, but not quite there. First and foremost, the land in question is federally owned public land. The federal land management agencies have multiple use management mandates, not single use, subsidized grazing mandates. The management plans are subject to change. The grazing fees are subject to change. The rancher who went into ranching depending on leased grazing lands, and a static price model, well, let's just say he had a very poor business plan.

And unlike our concern over CA Central Valley federally subsidized irrigation water that grows 25% of the US food supply, these rugged individualist Marlboro cowboys dependent on subsidized grazing land produce less than 3% or 2% of the nation's beef supply, depending on the info source.

They are all rugged individualists who would be out of jobs if they weren't suckling the Gubmint [Bleeeeep!] like the socialists they are.

Ranch.


It's more than something to dip your vegetables in.

Maybe it's like the Marlboro man's welfare check just got smaller?
Quick let's take over the wildlife refuge and demand it be turned over to "the people".
So how do you give the people back their own land?

You'd be very wrong about that, old man...I've bucked a lotta hay in my day.

We didn't all grow up in the city in California, ya know.

Besides...just because it's tough work doesn't all of a sudden make them "not socialists" when they are spending all of our tax dollars on our public lands to do it.

How bad do things have to get? Haven't you noticed that being called names and having my sanity put into question does not bother me all that much. Thats where you go when you have nothing else, can't debunk it can't prove otherwise, you attack the persons character in attempt to discredit them. So you can feel better about yourself and extinguish some of your fears.

It's alright I don't hold your ignorance against you. It's just sad that you seem to hold something against me??

when you put it that way, maybe you should run for president...

Uh, never.

How bad is it, Rich?

I get paid every couple weeks. When I go to the gas station, they have gas. When I go to the store, they have food. When I use the cash machine, money comes out, and people at stores accept it as payment. I haven't missed a meal EVER if I was hungry.

I think you're looking for things to wet the bed about, just like people have been doing since 1929.

Does it ever bum you out to predict disaster and have it not happen? I suppose if you wait long enough, you'll end up being right - or your paranoid grandkids will.

It's all good until its not anymore..... Either you see it or you don't.

Post again when it isn't.

Says the guy who ruined Redhooks life !

Skate will blame anyone and everyone for his miserable life.

I've never felt loved here.
