Great picture. I have a solution to their falling milk prices, too. Claim a milk shortage and ask everyone to conserve milk, then six months later hike the price of milk up because you aren't selling enough. That's what Santa Rosa is doing with water. Seems to work well for them.

there is a lot of pissed off farmers in europe (mainly france) right now for those who havent been keeping track of world events.

it cost them more to produce milk than they are able to sell it for.

a lot of farmers are doing some crazy **** with milk

fortunatly a lot of the farmers are donating it to homeless shelters and school.

but they are also watering their fields with it

could you imagine how bad this would smell after a couple hours.


a lot of farmers are slaughtering their dairy cows because they are actually making more money from the meat than the milk.

santa rosa is city council is full of a bunch of god damn morons.

they want us to save water, and then they hike up the rates because we didnt use enough of it so they have to hike up the rates to regain the money we lost from the water we didnt use.

**** sticks

This has also happened in the US before. Because the meat is so lean, they have to supplement it with fat and it end up getting turned into "groud round" or hamburger. They make for cheaper cuts [non-USDA Prime], but there's more money in simply grinding the meat and adding fat... /random rant
