even in the worst case scenario, the cost of preventing buffalo from transmitting brucellosis costs more than it costs the state for losing class free status; when you figure that buffalo weren't even the cause here, the cost is that much more absurd, when you see how little it actually does to the state industry when that happens you see further, and when you recognize what a small percentage of Montana's GDP is from cattle, it's even more absurd ... and those aren't even close to the best arguments against the policy 7/9/09 One million travel through YNP gates (by Yancy Bonner Powell Tribune--WY)--but again cautions that people aren't spending money;
