Real helpful these organizations are in Montana to help the government take away producers rights and subjugate themselves to Government tyranny. I urge producers not to submit to registration of their premises and to fight the whole NAIS proposal. It's just a fancy way the meat packers have to subjugate American producers to their will. While right now it's voluntary, it will be mandatory by 2005 unless producers and consumers can derail it. Remember the part these organizations played in trying to subjugate you producers and stop supporting them.
