I don't know the details of how the tax would work, but I think it wouldn't be as big a difference over time, on the face of it. If you're paying tax on one side, you're developing a loss carry-forward on the other. I don't think that's such a big factor.
Cost of production in our industry is calculated regularly. I like the idea of going in that direction rather than separating the loss under the current program. Cost of production is something that...the consumers vote to put things in place that we must follow when we produce their product.
It might be more stomachable to have a bigger ag budget for these programs based on a cost of production, because that cost of production is something the consumers of the country give us as farmers. We can all produce a less expensive.... We can produce perhaps as cheap as other countries. But under the cost of production, those costs are put upon us by the consumers of the country. So it might be more stomachable to move the budget.
