Is that what drives the majority of the 1-2 million "Betty's" in the USA? 
I sure don't think it is.  Too many horses get bought and quickly dumped 
back onto dreamhorse or sold locally for me to believe that's a driving 
force in purchase decisions.  I feel a little lonely in my very weak 
attempts to find homes for a few rescues/rehabs.

ARE they getting top dollar?   For how many horses - how many are being 
imported to the USA per year?  Not many I think!  Otherwise, I'd think we'd 
see a LOT more than 2000-3000 Iceys in the USA by now.
