Despite numerous farm groups and state leaders urging
the USDA to enforce the Packers and Stockyards Act and Anti Trust Laws,
that agency shows no inclination to do so.

One thing that you left out is there is no one in Washington that gives a dam about the American farmer because we are less then 1% of the voting public, so they are not going to take the time to do anything for anyone that is not lining their pockets with greenbacks. The big corporate farms have lobbist in Washington with big checkbooks getting what they want.
