Re: [biofuel] Re: Thinking about buying a car
Doug, its obvious your a city person. Farmers need a truck to run to town to buy feed and supplies, a truck to pull your livestock trailer. This is a good reason why the independent farmers need to form a union. With a union we could stop buying at the highest cost and sell at a lost. We would have the support with in our union to do like OPEC, cut production and drive up the food prices. The average American family lives paycheck to paycheck. With just enough food in their house to last two weeks. Therefore the farmers would get the recognition and respect they deserve. Let the farmers of America unite. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Saturday, December 08, 2001 2:59 PM Subject: [biofuel] Re: Thinking about buying a car > >Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2001 15:58:48 -0800 >From: "Mark E.

> Fiat - Nothing. Nothing to give. FIAT owns Case New Holland, one of the largest agricultural equipment producers in this country.
