To further elaborate, somehow in Wall St. logic, paying more for food and gas is okay and won't hurt the economy as long as you can get a loan for a cheap interest rate.

HFC --
Sold 10 700 lb holstein steers last week for 2.08 per hundred. For those of you out of the know, that's 1,400 dollars for a steer that's a little over half way ready for the butcher... The market is crazy right now. It's the reason I went ahead and sold them. Pigs are going to get that way, but I think that is due to the virus that is killing 35% of the newborns. I am not big farm. But now is the time to be a farm producer, imo. I am looking forward to the farmer's market season. |

Maybe because human beings shouldn't really be eating pork, beef, and shrimp in every region of the country every ****ing day.
Somewhere along the lines in human evolution the "fatted calf" became a daily habit. |

Well, like I wrote, I went looking after seeing the price of shrimp had gone up dramatically and wanted to see why.
Sorry if you are offended.

.... Pete, you know damn good and well that the CPI number includes food and fuel. Core CPI is the calculation that leaves those off. Quote:

I suppose granola and bean sprouts are what you think we "should" be eating everyday?

In other news I talked to a cow calf guy, and asked him if he was retaining heifers. His response? "Every one of them." Dude has big steel balls. I'd have probably let them go. Run one more year with the old bitches and try to retain some when price goes back down some. I guess that's why I'm not a cowboy. |
