Ok Nick. How much did the NHB cost you last year? What did they do for
you? I've paid thousands in the last few years. Haven't done Jack S. for
me. They come into my home with copying machine and record all my
business papers. Then they tell me how much I'd better pay them or else.
Only in Amerika. Its tough enough to make a living on bees. How much do
you think we make on each pound of honey we make? A few cents? 10 to 20
in a good year? 1 cent assessment can be as much as 10% tax. Now they
want 2 cents. For what? So they can put stupid dumb adds in good
housekeeping! I'd be better off spending the money on something my
apiary needs. Like - queens, truck, new extractor, etc, etc, etc. How
much did the NHB cost you Nick? How about you all? Have they invaded
your space yet? Have they threatened you yet? Have they done anything
but promote foriegn honey sales to manufacturers? Think about it folks.
What's the price of honey today?  Mike
