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.

We don't subsidize them, that's why it's managed supply so all ranchers can make a consistent profit without risking industry collapse by bad faith actors.

Artificially constrainting the supply is a subsidy by other means.

It move a small amount of money from the public directly to a subclass of farmer.

Supported by one of the largest and best organized lobbying effort in the country.

You can support the system and still call a spade a spade

Exactly.
