Mega Plant

Thank you Kato, many plans are in the making at the moment. It would be nice to see a little coordination. Many stories like cowman told are happening every day. Until we have a long term strategy the band aids will just keep falling off.

Processing (as in a plant) is only the first step, several key players in the supply chain need to come together to make any of this work!

Long term stratagies are good but what we really need are some short term solutions. It would seem the governments' solutions continue to be smoke and mirrors and dithering! Which is okay as it doesn't cost the taxpayer very much and they can concentrate on the homos, dope and other life shattering problems. And those dumb old farmers will continue to feed the cows and blow what little equity they have left. Well priorities say no one really gives a rip about a bunch of dumb farmers?
Why just last week Ralph Goodale said they have some money but they want to make sure they get it right so they need to study the problem a bit more! But Ralph you've had since May 20th to study it? Didn't you keep any notes?
The government has two options. Either dispose of the 650,000 cows or else find a market for them. One involves the pit the other involves testing. How hard is this to see?

Cowman...we are not going to get anywhere with you talking like that. You need to use clarity! Be clear about this. You need to write the same thing, but a minimum of 5000 words are needed.
Liberals don't like simple solutions for what they percieve to be, complex problems.

You know I was thinking the other day about how unconcerned our leaders seem to be about how the farm situation is falling apart. Then I started thinking about how they must look at it.
Considering that dope is a $7 billion dollar business then a lot of people must be smoking it? I mean if the average smoker, smoked a thousand bucks worth per year that amounts to 7 million dopers. I heard Svend Robinson declare that 10% of the population were ***** so that means we have 3 million homos!
No wonder can't get no service! I doubt there are 3 million farmers left let alone 7 million! So you see government really does have its priorities straight! In the big picture of decadent lifestyles we really don't rate!

Goes back to what I have been suggesting since the beginning. If the solution is going to be found it will be a grass roots solution. You as the producers will make this happen. Again the challenge is to pull the farmers together long enough for the individual to become one voice. The voices that are getting the attention in the government are the ones that have a clear agenda. To many people feel the farmers agenda is to squak and use binder twine to fix things! My feeling is that at some point in time the grass roots will have to figure out a way to make sure they have at least enough of a strategy to go beyond the government and build their own cash flow and infrastructure without some of the twits getting in our way!
