Market Farming

["GlobalCirclenet" <webmaster AT globalcircle.net>]

What we're missing here is all of the facts. At least try to provide some
supporting evidence, please. Hard evidence, not hearsay rant from FB and
Wise Use lobbies in disguise. What percentage of small livestock operators
in Minnesota? Exactly who and how many have thrown in the towel in "those
areas"?  Is there even one farmer who wasn't going out of business anyway
for other reasons? 

I don't believe we have many people here demanding reintroduction of wolves
in the first place, so why bring up this anti-wolf stuff unless it's to
discredit FB critics as "environmentalists" ? (horrors).  Next on the FB
agenda will be to lump anti-GMO people with "terrorists" 

Fine if individuals want to take part in FB meetings locally, that's not my
concern.
