It is not a political question; it is a straight question. Mr. Callanan knows better than I do that someone rearing a family on a farm with 60, 70 or 80 cows does not have flexibility or acreage. If everyone around them is doing this, the land is not available. They do not have the flexibility to go 70, 80 or 100 miles for land compared to someone who has 1,000 acres.
