So you used to handle the other end of the food chain. Hmmmm. Takes nerve to time the market on that end, too.
Lotsa ulcers in the pits, I’ll wager, huh?

Last year was corn for us. The year before was soybeans.
Did alright.
You won’t ever get rich farming but you’re your own boss.
Old joke.
How do you make make a million dollars farming?
Start with TWO million dollars!”
The reason they despise the idea of the wall so much is that they know how much they deserve to be put up against it, and then be shot dead.
All Mr. President Trump has to do is send out one Tweet- or one radio broadcast, or one postcard- calling out the unorganized militia, and there'll be 5 million armed Americans, mostly veterans, ready willing and able to back him up.
I agree. If the President calls for help, he’ll definitely get it.
I had someone in a very interesting position inquire about such possibilities, and suggested to him that an initial manageable first effort would be about 2500 per state, with a followon plan of 5000 per state.
Hopefully the use of such an ad hoc force would be limited to a particular region, probably in or near multiple state lines and very possibly an international border. Command and control would be critical, but I suggested an Order of Battle and rank structure that has proven historically successful in the past. And included a few operational tips and techniques as well.
The contingency presented to me was one in which Homeland Security was hamstrung from operating and the Active military forces were otherwise engaged or declined to accept tactical assignments in CONUS.
As soon as he calls the militia out, I’m ready. I’ll be one of those revolutionary era chaplains. Guns and Bibles.
Good. I believe it was Napoleon Bonaparte who observed that God fights on the side with the best artillery! But I would prefer to have one of those with a more sincere faith offering intercessions on my behalf.
