On the compensation aspect, we don't want a handout. We don't want free money. I want you guys to understand that. We don't want anything that we don't deserve.
As Ross said earlier, this is brought on....
I want to back up. I get this. This is important for our industry. This is important for our food safety. I get it. It's important, and we must go to these measures to protect people and our industry, but I'm saying that we need to have something in place and it needs to be better organized. It just seems that our system is too small or too broken to take care of an issue or a disaster this size.
Going back to the compensation, I don't know what it could look like. I feel almost embarrassed to be asking for money, but in saying that, this is costing me hundreds of thousands of dollars a month and in the end they might kill all those cattle.
I don't mind spending money feeding a cow that is productive and taking care of my factory—that's business—but when the factory is going to be gone in the end, that's just money pumped into a dead end. Well, it's pumped into a dead cow.
