Buying a Pig, Future Farmers of America Auction
An anecdote is shared about purchasing a pig named Rosie at a Future Farmers of America (FFA) auction at the Alameda County Fair. The host explains the tax write-off benefits of paying over market price for livestock and describes the "horrible" experience of taking a pet pig from a crying 11-year-old girl to be processed by a Portuguese butcher in Manteca.
