Love how the msm can turn everything into a very very bad thing and all Trump's fault. Just a few days ago, the msm was complaining there weren't enough dairy farms. Today, they're complaining they are producing too much milk and cheese.

Yet, we're still importing Mexican cheese.

Fine, give it to those starving fed government children. Win-win.

[TBP]

Yes, give it to the families of furloughed Federal workers.

I live near the border and whatever is in the new deal has 2 local dairies expanding.

Cut the welfare payments back to the cheese manufacturing chain, and the market would take care of the problem.

Well past time to get the Feds out of the milk price control/subsidy racket.

If you’re giving it away I’ll take a wheel of extra sharp cheddar please.

Cheese is darn expensive in the stores, they are artificially propping up the price. I for one would love the price of cheese come down.

Properly stored cheese cannot go bad. A 10-20 year old cheddar can be sold for $20+ per pound.

When the food stamp money runs out in February give out the cheese.

Can it be frozen?

[Jaded]

Feed it to all the starving federal employees Cher is moaning about.

[Larry Lucido]

Too much oil, too.

[Leep]

They forgot the cheese?

[TBP]

This is what farm subsidies do.

My grandparents got surplus cheese when I was a kid. Best cheese ever!
