Not to make too fine a point but it doesn't surprise me that you have been to a communist country GF. But I am wondering why you didn't stay there??

Nothing wrong with travelling in my book HT - it broadens the mind. Gives some perspective that you don't get by living in Alberta all your life. Truth is most of you guys throwing about the communist socialist/marxist tags in relation to the CWB or the NFU don't have a clue what you are talking about, not a clue.
p.s. you'd better get after Randy now seeing as how he's going to be doing business with communists - you do know that China is a communist country don't you? They seem to be quite successful at global trade - how could that be? they're communist and we all know communists can't be successful in business. Any ideas HT?

They say the sign at the Beijing airport says "One country - Two systems". Everything is clean cause everything now has value. I'll let ya know when I get back.

Went to Cuba once and was impressed. Poor people still had decent clothes and did not beg for money, just tried to sell you cigars. Food was awesome and all organic.

Still like that freedom thing though...

The Chairman of ABP once called us socialists at an AGM. At the time, Cargill had just recieved their cheque from the governmnet to support all of their losses due to BSE>>>>LOL

All about balance and it always makes it's way back to the middle. Remember the Roman Empire... Kinda looked like the Bush Glory era in the good old USA.
Hail George but what the hell is Hu Jintao up to....

I don't know what he's up to Randy - I was surprised his immigration department issued you a visa too lol

[per]

You did get a visa didn't you Randy?

GF I notice you didn't answer my question but vented your usual disregard for any opinion contrary to your own. FWIW one of my granddads homesteaded in this country a hundred and some years ago hoping for a socialist paradise. God bless him but I didn't inherit that attitude. Must have took after my other grandad and two great-grandads who also homesteaded but had different politics. I know that progress is driven by malcontents, so carry on bravely. I keep thinking that not all progress is forward. HT

HT, I answered your question maybe you didn't understand. I was on holiday - travelling. I have no interest in living in a communist country because I am not a communist and do not hold communist beliefs.
You are one to talk about not answering questions - here are the ones you have avoided on this thread:

"I for one would certainly consider being involved with a single desk selling organisation for beef however. Look at the results achieved by the Northwest Cattlemans Alliance and tell me why it wouldn't be a good idea?"

"So is it only communism that doesn't work HT? How well is capitalism working at the moment?"

"Have you ever been to a communist country HT?"

"lets hear your experience that makes you an expert on the flaws of communism."

"you do know that China is a communist country don't you? They seem to be quite successful at global trade - how could that be? they're communist and we all know communists can't be successful in business. Any ideas HT?"
