So, this price concern is based on the idea that dairy farmers will sell their milk to the government instead of their normal distributors because they will get more money for it, then the government will scuttle it's prices to get rid of the milk....

Wouldn't the farmers be better served to continue selling at their current prices to their current distributors?
Do we believe they would screw themselves for a short term gain?

Why is the government involved in milk prices anyway??
