to forget capitalism, market conditions, supply and demand, and see if we can create our own "bailout" for the reptile industry!

1% of each breeder's sales could go into a pot. Then, when someone wants to get out of breeding after seeing the market value of their large investment has dropped, we can give them some of that money to entice them to stay in it!

That would stimulate the reptile economy by encouraging more people to get in in the first place, since the risk of investing no longer would exist!
