My take on what the real problem people have with the CWB

[agstar77]

Back to name calling are we. Well the problem with the so-called free market negotiation, is that is rarely between equals. W e are usually dealing with the Viterras and Cargills. Sort of david and goliath. without some leverage it's pretty much a one sided negotiation. But you are probably so important, at least in your own mind, that they quiver and shake when you phone. It's not that I don't believe in a transparent and free market, it's just that I think it is a little naive to believe in one under current circumstances. There are very few of us that can call the market like cotten, and perhaps we should try harder, but under the current markets, I doubt we can negotiate a better deal.

"... I doubt we can negotiate a better deal."

So why even try hey AS?

Just too hard is it? Not worth the effort? Personal choice and responsibility just not an option? Maybe you wouldn't be able to blame someone else for your failures or mistakes?

The last time I checked this was 2008 and it might just be time to grow up and start thinking for yourself instead of hoping the all-knowing gov't will do it for you.

[agstar77]

Actually it is you that are blaming someone or something for your failure.

And then you bury any brillance by bringing up sda and that dike kate.

One of the largest festering pots of racism on the internet.

The old large corporations are my enemy argument.
If that's true, why do I make any money with canola?
Better yet, why am I pushing my canola rotation so hard to the exclusion of board grains? Reality versus fantasy.

Cotton, does your comment make agriville a festering pot of sexism?

[silverback]

Agstar, our family farm is doing pretty well right now, a long way from failure with no thanks to you and your little friends.

If you don't think you can negotiate anything better for western farmers then get the hell out of the way! Go hide in the bush and build wicker chairs or something.

We don't need you to add your layers of beaurocracy between farmers and the actual companies who handle the grain.

Once again, it is 2008.

I didn't know she was a dike, cotton, but obviously you know, so I presume she is a relative?

Canadians must like festering pots of racism, as you call it, because Canadians keep voting her the best blog in Canada.

[AdamSmith]

CP, Not that I need to defend SDA but every now and then I browse some of her stuff and I can't say I've read anything I consider racist.

Unless if you consider pointing out the evil's associated with radical Islamic terrorisim as being racist?

Nothing racist about disputing the questionable notion of catostophic global warming.

[parsley]

agatar,I agree that free market negotiationis that is rarely between equals.

But one gets to choose....read it again....CHOOSE which equal you do business with. If you don't like Cargill, you pick a smaller company. If you don't like Canada, you pick Italy.


What is really unequal, is when 430 hungry Wheat Board dogs are panting, expecting to be fed,snarling, and the farmer has no where to escape, except to the CWB kennel.


Now that's unequal.
