I use Razor, think that's the right spelling. Far as I can tell, it
works the same at a fraction of the cost.

Just look for Glyphosate as the active ingredient.

last year for my soybean crop I purchased 2.5 gallon containers
of 41% Glyphosate for around $48.00 each. this year the same
product at the same store was $92.95

Where can you buy Razor?

I bought it online, don't remember where. You can try Ebay.

Damn, d00d. I'm sure they're blaming the price of gasoline, no?

Ha!

It does make me wonder if this fuel cost thing is being
used as a scapegoat for many products so they can
"gouge" us consumers!

yeah, i forget the name of the active ingredient in roundup, but it's
in many products; just buy by price vs concentration of that
ingredient. on the other hand, the long-term "kills weeds all season"
versions of roundup and other brands have different ingredients.

in my piddly experience with corporations, i have come to the
following conclusions, which i call the dumpster effect:

pretty much every corporation is cooking the books, a little or a lot,
in order to keep stock prices up and keep the management salaries up.
pretty much every department of every corporation is cooking the
books, a little or a lot, to keep the management employed.
whenever some economic glitch comes along, no matter how trivial, it's
regarded as an opportunity to balance the books somehow, and saddle
that glitch with the under the counter deficit being concealed. so
that some minor product gets recalled by the FDA, and the next thing
you know the companies reporting a huge loss, which doesn't make
economic sense.
it's sort of like when you have a dumpster delivered to your house for
some project, and by the next morning it's magically full of all sorts
of items which you don't recognize at all.

It is a good thing the inflation rate is so low, or I'd be worried.

Considering how the prices of so many staples are going up, I don't
see how inflation can be low. I guess it's because people can't afford
to buy so demand is dropping. We're in big trouble thanks to the
borrow and spend Republicans.

Oh yeah, it's all the Republicans. Last time I checked, Democrats
control both the Senate and House. And they are solidly in control
of the House, where all spending bills must originate. Yet the pork
continues to flow.

The prices of staples that have shot up the most are oil and food.
And the food part is directly related to laws passed to drive more
corn into ethanol. That has driven up the price of not only grains,
but also meats as well. And last time I checked the Democrats want
more use of alternative fuels, including ethanol, so don't lay this
off on Republicans.

If it were up to Republicans, we would be drilling in ANWR and in most
of the offshore USA today and building new nuclear power plants.
Instead, we go around refusing to utilize our own resources, while
bitching. It was Clinton who vetoed the bill authorizing drilling in
ANWR in the mid 90's. If we had opened ANWR, we'd have at least 1
mil barrels a day flowing from there now. And it's entirely
possible that there's an elephant size field as big as Saudia Arabia's
in ANWR. No one knows, because Democrats and environmental extremists
won't allow even test wells to be drilled to find out.

As for offshore, we now have China drilling in Cuba waters closer to
Florida, to gain access to oil that we could be drilling for.
Where's the Democrat lead initiative to change any of this? Their
energy solution: Tax the oil companies more.
