Subject: No meat for two weeks? Meat inspector furloughs on March 1st.

Good morning,

We were told by a rancher from our church that at the cattle men's meeting this week the announcement was made that the Feds will be furloughing the meat inspectors for 2 weeks starting on March 1st.  Pat and her husband Calvin have been ranchers here in Raymond for over 20 years.  She was very upset last night when she told our group what was happening.  This action by the Federal government will empty the store shelves, and also cause a substantial  increase in the cost of meats and chickens, etc. in the future.  

This information can be verified on several news sites including the following:

I strongly advise you to check this out and take action to prepare for this to happen by supplementing the amount of meat you have on hand before the end of this month.  How long do you figure it will take for the stores to run out of meats and poultry?  I figure about 3 days...
