I think this calls somehow for more government intervention. Price supports and subsidies or something like that. </sarcasm>
We can take some of the price pressure on milk off by drinking more beer. Beer is probably healthier for adults anyway.
It’s Bush’s fault!
It’s the democrats war on children.
Did anyone see a cheese shortage? Was anyone denied Velveeta dip during the Super Bowl? No, I didn’t think so. This is all hoopla and price manipulation.
Then in responding to market demands they will produce more milk, right?
Farmers face higher feed costs mostly because of government rules / regulations. Ethanol, made mostly from Corn in the US, is highly subsidized because it is an “alternative, renewable” fuel. Corn farmers get more money from ethanol corn than food corn. Hence, less food corn, causing less supply, increasing cost. Why do we have to go through this every time? The principle of supply and demand never changes.
wont this only affect “The Children” who eat three boxes of cereal a week?
