"the AGRICULTURAL MARKET?"

I've also posted on this aspect of the business, rode the combines out on the Eastern Washington Palouse where wheat fields run to the edge of the horizon and the combines and trucks are running 24/7 as are the fuel trucks back and forth to the fields, again and again and again at a huge cost to the farmers. And what of the petroleum based insecticides and fertilizers and the fuel costs for their manufacture and transport and spreading over the fields after the plowing, which also consumes huge amounts of fuel. Huge fuel costs cutting into every aspect of the growing, harvesting, transport and end goods manufacturing for the consumer. Huge!

The Wildcat Boosters may make a difference in life or death for farmers marginally on the cusp of losing their family farms because they can not compete, largely due to costs associated with fuel consumption. Fat cats with no moral compass and a lack of view beyond their own greed would not care about those small farmers and their families and their heritage spanning generations from the first settling of America. Every time that happens it puts all of us at further risk of being exploited by big global money with no connection to our nation or our well being. Just sayin'! Yep, that's how it is.
