Got Milk Tax?

Milk is next...

Methane gases from all forms of cattle production are a major contributor to climate change, in addition to damage to fresh water resources and fisheries. It's entirely plausible that the butterfats in milk products are addictive and that the dependence on dairy products may be a factor in childhood obesity.

The immense size of the dairy industry here is one reason why MacDonald's and Burger King have been able to expand and remain profitable for decades- cheap beef. It's where all the worn-out dairy cows go.
