Care for a refill of your glass of kool-aid ??

Sorry Rev Jones , no kool aid this time

Temp and moisture odds are against the western Midwest and a decent dry land crop.

Numbers on beans this year.  Demand function=price x usage.   Higher price and higher usage means higher demand function.

so your point is government talks out of both sides of its mouth.  ??

Or it is obvious that there are alterior motives to the projection process??

Or it is obvious that those who write the articles twist government reports to support their advertisers??

Nothing we read can be trusted??

Or NOAA is not toeing the political line and has more credibility that usda ??

OR   the most likely .........

Goernment is too involved in attempting to direct and control agriculture incomes..??

I doubt this title is appropriate........... we continue to grant government far too much credit ...... Large crops may or may not affect commodity prices ...... But clearly there is a monthly guestimation report that does.

The internet was cute and cuddly fun for the first few years.  Now it is an authoritarian demon we don't control.  The adults in the room are so tethered to their (internet) news creator... they have lost the ability to distinguish truth from lampoon.

facts are not truth.... but now...  opinion repeated

experts are not phd's or soy roy's but created by their number of followers....

And false information goes largely untested until the chickens are riled...... begin plucking each others feathers....and mass hysteria turns a few facebook ads into a "sky is falling" foreign invasion......

sociological insanity that demands the spending of millions investigating political banter........... that is insanity.

the internet based society is probably not a democracy....... but is where we are and where we will be for a long time...

Wikileaks was launched 11+ years ago.  And is an example to the world of the internets challegne to free and open societies.  It can bring down anyone politically and elevate demons to social prominence.  Can be used by anyone for nearly any purpose and to this day is held to no standard of proformance or limitation of travel.

Will the forces of good win the battle to control the internet and thus .......... the world.  

This may be the 21st century "bubonic plague" that has no limit of transfer.  Turning gray matter into shades of gray. Exposing tyrannical politicians and your children.....
