Thanks

@DrTorch

That’s exactly what I was thinking. If this isn’t a textbook definition of collusion, what is?

Honesty and independence (refusing dairy buyouts) put my father-in-law’s dairy farm out of business years ago. Luckily, he’s much happier as a bank officer now.

Somethings going on with milk. Here in California the stuff is practically being given away – 2 gallons for $4.00! On top of that, state law requires additional milk solids to be added, so maybe it’s more like 2.5 gallons for $4.

Absolutely correct. Farmers are the largest welfare bloc in the States. They sicken me with their behavior.

Wake me up when food becomes expensive.

Back when I first started practicing law, this was known as price-fixing and considered a violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. Of course that was a long time ago, back when we were a nation of laws. Go ahead coyote and report me to the commissar.

On the up side, the price of pet food might go down. You know that’s where the “real beef” in your canned dog food comes from, right? Old dairy cows?

BTW isn’t,
“The most recent buyout completed last month involved 101,000 cows, the most ever for the groups so- called Cooperatives Working Together program”

the definition of collusion?

This is truly evil. Because it won’t be long before we’re presented with high milk prices as a primary reason we need to up welfare and foodstamp benefits. We’ll be told how the poor, especially children, are suffering under high prices for the basic, essential necessities of life.

Then we’ll be told that it is greedy profiteers (oil, insurance, investment banks, etc.) who have done this to the country.

Farmers have my respect, they work damn hard for a marginal ROI. But this tack is a big problem.

Call it ‘stimulus’.
