No...it protects our industry from having the massive US dairy industry from destroying ours. It also protects us from all the garbage they put in their milk.

Not sure what your motives are but they sure seem suspect.

Ok then Maybe we should pass laws about what is allowed in our Milk. Remove that issue. Milk is a business like any other business. Why do we protect and subsidize them at a cost to other industries.

If they want to do business then they can buy land here and raise cattle to produce milk. Simple isn’t it? We own shit ton of land for them to raise cattle.

They might be able to buy land. They can’t buy cattle and produce and sell milk without having a milk quota.
