Dairy cliff

The last farm bill is set to expire January 1st, when this bill expires the "permanent law" will make the prices of dairy go up the USDA will take charge on the 31st of January. The result of the permanent law is called the dairy cliff this would make milk prices go up to about $8 a gallon which equals almost $37.20 per hundredweight, "by the time the USDA steps in congress should have another farm bill made and in effect" said Tom Vilsack US Secretary of Agriculture. When a new bill comes out the prices should level out back to normal, for now dairy farmers are glad to be able to sell there milk for what they have wanted it to be.
My point of view on this topic is that it is great that the prices are going up so the dairy farmers are able to make some money, but the high prices will make consumers get away from the dairy products that help keep the market up.

The red cow

The butter cow was yellow until an animal rights group painted it red to try to show people or draw attention to the rights of the animals that we slaughter to eat, the group is called Iowans for animal liberation (IAL) the cow was cleaned off and touched up then the show continued as normal.

The event that happened at the fair kinda concerns me because they did this what will they do next? Nobody really knows for sure the animal rights groups have been getting desperate for attention and here soon they will get the attention but not the kind they want, because some people don't like the way they are trying to get their point to people the way they are using isn't the best way to go and here soon the law enforcement will here soon crack down and punish them if this gets any worse that's my opinion.
