So am I understanding you right that you believe USDA is manipulating the market to artifically INCREASE prices?  I think alot of folks on this site believe just the opposite.  If those export numbers are correct, that would be pretty scary.  Could you provide a link to where your export numbers come from?  It seems like a lot of effort to go through to decrease farm income.  Are you a lobbiest for a Corporatation Purchaser or something? GMA? Ethanol? Livestock?
