Approach, Approach, and again Approach

We are back to saving the Rain Forest, but with a twist; I don’t know whether the current cattle removal from range is a good idea. I know that Brazil should seriously enter into a Tree Replanting program, though to eliminate grazing at this point will only breed growth of adverse Weed and Brush formation. The pursuit of heavy Canopy Forest replacement could very well be wrong. I believe that the best Oxygen replenishment with highest Carbon sequestration comes from Groves of Trees dotted through a landscape of grassland. Water drainage is least constrained by this ecological balance with a projection of highest Carbonized Plant growth. Both Animal grazing and browsing must be minimally maintained in such an environment to break up dead brush, and fertilize the land with the spread of desirable Seed. An Agronomist should always be included on environmental committees and Studies.

It may be time for Economists to stop talking about Core Inflation. It is going to come up a tad! Dow Chemical is jumping Prices by 45% in One Quarter, and intends to impose Freight charges on top of the Prices. Steel prices appear to on the Road to increase Steel prices by about 50% within a year. Producer Prices rose 7.2% year over year for May, and it looks to be one of the last single digit entries for quite a while. One of the Economic theory benefits coming from the coming debacle may be middleman understanding that increased Producer Costs should be immediately passed on to the Consumer, so that Production level adjustments are made immediately and accurately. Waving a flag on a sinking ship is not only Costly, but life-threatening.

Business Development has again found auctions. The later are the best medium to establish a market evaluation for Property. Closed Negotiations Sales propel an artificial Price escalation, as the highest Priced Negotiations are always cited at the standard Market value in later negotiations. I would pass legislation (if I were God, or even a good Senator) mandating that all Property must be sold after Open Auction, and Closed Negotiations Sales cannot be approved before both Buyers and Sellers have evaluated and Signed all Bid notifications from the Open Auction. Hell, I might even be able to make it as an Auctioneer under such a law. lgl
