Retail milk prices, the report said, would increase 90 percent if all immigrant labor was lost.

That means the wholesale price would have more than doubled.

Somehow I doubt that.

But even if true, that would be more than offset by the decrease in taxpayer-funded services the now-absent invaders would no longer be collecting.

There is very little human labor in milk production. This is BS.

Feeding a milking cows requires some labor but not much compared to the milk produced. Total labor bill at retail is probably a few pennies on the dollar.

Kroger, in central Indiana, has milk @ $1.29 a gallon.

(Could be the loss leader; who knows.)
