Apparently literally unthinkable. The EU had a milk quota not that long ago that did it's numbers to regulate price and keep dairy fairms in good money. But they thought "man if those dang quotas weren't there we could sell so much more and get even richer"

So the milk quota was lobbied out of existence and see here, they're getting less than what it costs to produce now because they're all in direct competition with each other and they pretty much all thought what was stopping them from getting rich was the quota

There's like an easy fix here: bring the quota back. This'd be such a fucking easy sell, too, stopping the economy destroying milk exports to africa, better for the planet, but nope, all they do is do is basically tractor freedom protests because the EU is destroyign their business with these dang ecological regulations that no one controls anyways.

They got what they wanted and they hate it so, so fucking much

One of the few tolerable things about the US is the abundance for food, you'd think that since it could grow like weeds, we'd have no hungry people...ever.
