      @@clay119 The Romans conquered people.
      The Romans could be brutal , but they preferred conquered peoples to agree and become part of the empire.
      They couldn't be free and couldn't really self govern. They had to pay taxes,and sometimes had to worship a foreign god in addition to their own gods.
      But if they were agreeable, they generally got postal service, modern roads with good drainage, fresh water if they didn't already have it, and often a town bath.
      It's hard to compare that to what Spanish Conquistadors and Anglo settlers, and the independent nations they later formed,
      did to the indigenous people of North America.

    Bison are Seventy percent feed efficient . Domestic cattle Forty % feed , grass feeding ,). Some folks have this perfected with multi use ranches with chickens , turkeys ,cattle bison ,using each to benefit, the other improve the soil and sequester, carbon ,in grass roots and soil getting broilers , beef, wool , eggs , bison wool , !

    My Montana roots go back 140 years, so I say this with love, but cattle ranches like his are a thing of the past. Bison are FAR more important to us as inhabitants and caretakers of this great land than beef cattle are. So his way of life and profits are declining and that’s just the way it should be. Cattle had their time but now it’s time to repair our land and preserve it for future generations, instead of just letting boomers extract as much wealth as possible from our limited natural resources as they can, like locusts.
