That is the political side. Fact seems to be that the base issue is raising cattle for the ranchers is generally a money losing proposition leading to low supply to fully and profitably run all the beef processing plants we have. Some of this is a feedback loop in that as beef prices have risen many of us have decreased our red meat consumption.
