anyone delivering #1 HRS Wheat

[parsley]

mustardman,

When you state:

"As far as our fed. gov't, they will get my respect when they get gov't out of changing the cwb and let us do it thru our elected directors"

Elected Directors are like Barbi-dolls. They dress nice but it's the the CWB/Gov't that dresses them up.

What you are revealing to Agri-villers is that you you don't even realize that the CWB was created by Government for Government, is run by Government, and cannot be changed by anyone BUT bloody government.

Farmers' only role is to grow grain. Not to put on the show. Or to stop the show. Governments have always had the legislative say. Final say, mustardman. They are the show.

The only present role of farmers is to apply to Government to get front row seats at the show, and indeed, the CWB will have handed out front seat tickets, which is what you worry about. "What did my neighbor get?"

For any farmer worth his ancestor's salt, (to immigrate here for a better life), he had better learn what the CWB really is...a state instrument.... what it does....state intervention.

Don't do yourself a disservice, mustardman. Admit you have a state run agency, and quit trying pretend and pass it off as farmer-run.

cottonpicken,

I consider the basic successes of a country is 1)if people are free and 2)people do not have to go hungry.

Cuba's people go hungry. They cannot leave the country. North Korea's people go hungry. They cannot leave the country.

You might re-consider what you wrote.

cottonpicken, you said "Would cubans be more happy if they were like their neighbour haIti."

I'm sure they wouldn't, but judging by the number of people who have risked being eaten by sharks by catching the first available inner tube to Miami, I bet cubans would have been much happier and prosporous if they were more like Canadians or Americans.

You also said "That is the kind of logic that makes me question if a person is boarder line retarded."

kinda like a commodities and currency trader advocating closing down the free market and open price discovery in favour of a political motivated price control "board".

Sometimes people are just hard to figure out.

GEE Whiz Parsley I take it you did not vote for the pro board director in your area or maybe you are a disgrintled non- voter.

AdamSmith, according to the CWB site there is only a 40% call on No.1 CWRS. Is this another case of a friend of the agent getting ahead of the rest in delivery? I would imagine the agent has knowledge that the contract will open soon. We hear of large farmers in this area over delivering while the small farmers are told there is no space.

[almoy]

Parsley, well said. I was reading this laughing to myself.

Parlsey I'm glad you pointed this out to Mustardman. I didn't have the heart to embarass him.

Mustardman why won't you answer my question??

[almoy]

allmoy, I also have close to 70% of my Wheat delivered. You're right there is only 40% open. But in my area lots of guys can't haul do to bugs, tough grain etc. So I've been lucky to fill their spots.

[mustardman]

Snappy, sorry about not answering your question I got caught up with the Macarthyists who are paranoid and think there is a commie behind every bush.

Now when Canola was under the CWB (or was it -this was long before my time ? any ways the days of ****seed are long gone and the oilseed that is grown today does not resemble its predesessor
much except for the yellow flower. So how can you compare ? Besides what is the net return, on my farm last year my Nexxera Canola left me with a NEGATIVE $46/ acre (using variable costs only) My board crops were alot better than this. Price is only 1/2 of the equation.

[AdamSmith]

Almoy, all I know is the AU agent (SW MB)told me there was a new call. I said "to 60%" he said "yup" I didn't question too hard. They wanted wheat and I am eager to deliver.

[AdamSmith]

Almoy,

I guess my agent has alot of friends, because we were waiting over half an hour to unload. Everything from super B's to 1962 3 ton's. All had cwrs.

Not that this has anything to do with anything but when your waiting in line you observe things and what I observed was that those little old 300 bushel trucks usually take alot longer to unload than semis do.

[AdamSmith]

Mustardman,nice way to dodge the bullet, all you CWB supporters are so good at that.

[cottonpicken]

Adam when did i say anything about closing down a free market?I take it you were ASSuming.
It would take a lot of words to explain what cuba is and i probably would not change anyones mind so i'm not going to bother.I swear there is a hypnotic trigger in most peoples brains that makes them hit the deck when the word communist is mentioned.

Adam i new you were pretty shallow but the three ton truck comment was a very arrogant.
