Hi All/Jeff
The idea of killing of bees due to difficulty getting bees through
winter has some moral problems.
I personally believe that a beekeeper is something more than just a
capitalist trying to maximise profits - at the expense of the
environment. We as humans are just too selfish to perfect an ideal
social system like communism, but at least we can be fair to animals
that are such successful communists that we can as capitalists take
their surpluss!!
I like to think that beekeepers nowdays would be able to find a
better way around the problem - after all bees are one of the few
insects to evolve a genuine symbioses with humans - which means we
should keep up our side of the deal.
Sorry to sound moral (we south africans are not supposed to be moral
you know)
Keep well
