Checkoff

I see that the <acronym title="United States Cattleman's Association">USCA</acronym> is <a href="http://uscattlemen.org/TheNewsRoom/2007_News/9-26AmendBeefAct.htm">starting a push</a> to have part of the beef checkoff funds used to promote just domestic beef. This ties in really with the push <acronym title="United States Cattleman's Association">USCA</acronym> is making for Mandatory <acronym title="Country of Origin Labeling">COOL</acronym>. As long as the beef checkoff funds are used to promote beef, I'm not going to get my knickers in a knot over whether it is domestic beef or not. <br />n<br />nSimple supply and demand. If demand is up for beef, whether it is us beef, organic beef, natural beef, or the usual corn fed beef, I will benefit. Real simple.<br />n<br />n<strong>We not only interpret the character of events… we may also interpret our interpretations. Kenneth Burke </strong>
