The Cost YOU Pay for Govt Cow-Killing

My inquiry to the USDA was this; What is the total amount of indemnifications our govt paid out this year for cattle that the USDA deemed had to be killed? Talk about "straight from the horses mouth,".....the Big-Whigs & Fat Cats at USDA have responded (below)

Below is the answer you were seeking (and should be available at the
APHIS web site):

For Fiscal Year 2008 total indemnity costs were $ $33,211,819.

*Excuse me I flunked math miserably due to a 5th grade nun who beat my head on the blackboard when I couldnt find a solution to a division problem,.....I still have to do the "fingers and toes" thing when counting in multiples, but I think that the figure above translates into over THIRTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS worth of indemnification for one year (2008) Just think of the $$$ our good govt would save IF their was no meat-food animal mass production. Big Time Ranchers, Industrial Dairymen and other factory farmers,....Help America save $$$$$, cut down your herds which will in turn cut down these hefty payments shelled out to the factory farmers every year, in the name of.....what? Good Governmnet? Fairness? Business Eccumen? "Economic Stimulus" or "Bail-Out?" Can you spell C-O-R-P-O-R-A-T-E-W-E-L-F-A-R-E- or why is it in america these days that only small business are allowed to fail? Not enough political clout? Duh.'Nuther No Brainer.
