  • The world does really revolve around the farmer just stop buying food, let us know how it works for you. Wouldn’t it be great if all the govt. bs would go away death tax, subsidies, insane regulations, ect. As for making money the govt. controls that for dairy so a business model won’t work. Isn’t the gov so nice, hope they starve off. Actualy it’d be nice to see the stores without for a few months or more. Oh well wishfull thinking.

  • yeah but how many polititians are #2

  • No morons ,like conservitive, you don’t get it the government mandates what we recieve, the USDA sends us out a nice little letter every month and tells us how they come up with the price we get. And if we want to sell it from the farm it is illegal. Don’t you get it, the government won’t let it go to the free market, if only we could get the free market involved, we are not allowed. As most dairy farmers we hoping for a complete economic collapse to straighten things out, let the bums who won’t work starve off.

  • What a lie, 7 dollars, last month, November, we were paid 20 dollars per hundred pounds of milk, how much was a gallon of milk in the store, around here it was 4 dollars. Do the math, the dairy farmer, that’s me, was paid $1.72 a gallon. If milk goes up to $38 were it should be, we’d get $3.27 a gallon. I’m not quite sure what moron’s doing the math but it’s not quite $7 yet. If anyone out there believes the dairy farmer should get paid less than $38 per hundred pounds of milk may you and yours starve off this winter. American food has been kept horrificaly cheap by this administration, in 09 we were paid on average $10 per hundred. December 08 we were paid $24 our input costs have doubled or tripled. It’s come up slowly but not enough to keep up with costs. As for the govt. paying us what a crock of you know what. They set the milk price we get at half production cost then “help” us by giving us 20cents per hundred for “adjusting the price” that they set wrong in the first place. Thank you government for all your help, you’ve starved us out and destroyed alot of dairy farmers, I pray to God we can return the favour.
