Stan,

I wish you the best, wish I had some silver bullet for you but I dont. It's a shame.

Just a couple of general comments to the whole issue though. We have got to all band together. Farm Bureau is not just an insurance company, the insurance is a service of the organization, I heard the other night from a couple of legislators that KFB was their most feared lobbying group. It doesnt have to be FB either, the are other organizations that have political clout NFO and CFA and others, I happen to choose FB because I support more of their policies and politics, and I dont even have insurance with them.

The other is I wish ag folks would get involved with local governance. 10 years ago our county tried to pass a county solid waste law that banned the disposal of brush and tree limbs anywhere but a landfill. Taken literally no compost piles, I happend to be reading the legal notices in the paper (only section in the bathroom :-) and saw it, raised holy he** at the next fiscal court meetign and they said we would never apply it to farmers, my reply was you might not but thats what the law from now on will read. They everyone admitted they hadnt read the ordinance.

I grew up with my dad fighting for causes he didnt have a stake in. He was one of the most vocal lobbiest against stricter state CAFO regulations for hogs than federal and we never had hogs. The reason was if all of us in ag dont stand together we will be picked off one by one.
