 Gas/Farmer Price Ratio - 2005/11/06 16:30 I just read the article on the Home Page of this website stating the price of farmer's products should reflect rising gas prices.

You know if the farmers did this, it might get the attention of the masses to put pressure on these mega profit oil companies who have been cashing in on the general public for sometime.

Why should the oil companies make all the money? It seems like the everyday citizens are usually getting the short end of the stick when it comes to paying at the gas pump.

One problem that I see is if the farmer's raise their rates, when does it stop before everything crashes?

 Re:Gas/Farmer Price Ratio - 2005/11/06 18:20 Wiggly, I believe the farmers are the backbone of this country anyway. We, as people, are more like a herd of sheep...we'll get used to anything, given time.
We're already paying way over 2.00 per gallon for .39 cents fuel. Our orchestrated attitude? Oh, well, if it'll just get back to 2.00 per gallon....it's a herd mentality we've been maneuvered into, in my view. Let the farmer make a buck! Seeya, Bob..the way I see it, when the big corporations take over all the farming, we'll be in for the biggest squeeze we've ever known....oil can't even compare when you have to eat. You can bet the same people, or some who've learned from em, will control that, too. www.trinity-ranch.com
