There is nothing more hypocritical than setting up a country on land that was inhabited by established groups, bullying and murdering across the landmass to stretch the political borders, populating the country with people from around the world, then deciding that other groups are too dangerous to come in and grandly persecuting anyone who dares to flee to the “land of the free.” Seriously? It sounds ridiculous when you put it that way because it is ridiculous, with horrifying results.

Dairy farmers are frustrated with the management of our dairy checkoff funds. Just like every other farmer growing or producing certain commodity crops, we pay a mandatory tax to a government checkoff program every time we sell milk. Back when dairy farmers agreed to the checkoff, we believed that our dollars would be used to promote milk sales and increase our profits. Is the dairy checkoff program working as intended?
