| Im saying he's comparing apples and oranges. I'm saying the higher fuel prices don't impact the trucking industry the same way it impacts farmers. Like pretty much every farmer, fall is my highest consumption of fuel. Harvest along with hauling feeder cattle 700-1,000 miles to my farm is a large expense. I simply cannot pass my increase of fuel on to what I get for crop or cattle income. I never said anything about profitability, I do just fine either way. I think it's comical that row crops get every handout ever dreamed up yet us livestock guys have a large impact from higher fuel and we get left behind. | |
