This is sooo stupid it ain't even funny. This is no example of the importance of what others think of us. It is an example of the importance of what they think of our beef. That is all it represents.

I don't blame them for boycotting American beef. I have been boycotting it for nearly two decades. Indeed, if I can't grow it, own/control the farming process or harvest the food with my own hands, I generally don't eat it.

Ken, beef growers are not stupid. They have been involved in the global economy for decades.

We live in a global economy. US Beef growers are about to discover what that means.
