We're suppose to be milking crickets to save the planet.

Prices have sky rocketed but Id like to see a breakdown of states like Ive seen for gas.

You can make numbers say anything you want.


I also said years ago we should NOT be subsidizing farmers, that bandaid was going to rip off one way or another and it appears they want to do it at the worst time.

That's just grains, pick a resource it's the same for most of them in a capitalist world.

TPTB have done a really good job of showing the world that evil capitalism needs to be replaced with socialism.

Switching a world from capitalism to socialism can't happen overnight; it takes intense planning and decades of baby steps to change the mindset of the masses.

Everything is directly or indirectly connected to fossil fuels, and the technology to replace them isn't here yet. If we, the common folk know that then surely those orchestrating this world-wide fiasco know exactly what they're doing.

I can explain it.
We allow the government to tell us what the rates are.

Yes, I'm sure dairy farmers probably get some relief from the government, but that would allow them to manipulate the rates then as well.

Here is the average price by state FWIW we rarely talk about it but virtually every state has some industry that absolutely runs the state.

That chart is out of date. I’m in Indiana and milk is just about $4. Maybe that’s a Biden graphic from Trumps time in office in an effort to downplay how bad inflation is under his watch.

Those prices are comparable with here in the US.

Why not try plant-based milk? Oat, coconut, almond, cashew and more! No harm to animals and its around the same price.

with the idiots soft quitting and the system crapping on working for a living the labor shortage is hitting industries like dairy and farming pretty hard.

I expect more shortages as things move along, I honestly wouldnt be surprised to see breadlines at some time during the peak of winter.

We in the US are catching up. Biden isn't done yet.
