Farmers have gotten the short end of the stick for years. I raise cattle and that's a break even at best business (for small family farms).

Yet hamburger cost more than steaks used to not all that long ago and good steaks are priced out of reach for many.

@dwb, are US cattle numbers down? I'm wondering what libertards have done to drive up the cost of beef.

When in Publix yesterday, Iooked at a nice T bone just for fun, $38.00 for the steak!! I didn't look at what it weighed and it was a big steak but good grief!!
