Brief synopsis: milk in the U.S. is not sold on the free market, but is rather subject to a byzantine set of regulations and price controls that artificially raise its price, thus hurting consumers. An entrepreneurial dairyman finds a loophole that allows him to sell milk for less. He outcompetes the government-operated dairy pools, makes a fortune while benefiting consumers, and everyone lives happily ever after. Oh, sorry, I just dreamed that last sentence. What really happens is his competitors spend millions of dollars buying off politicians to write a special law targeted just at him, which is passed without hearing or debate, shutting off his innovation and making losers of the American public.
The money quote:
"I still think this is a great country," Hettinga said. "In Mexico, they would have just shot me."
Is this what we've come to? The U.S. is a great country because they "legally" coerce you out of business, rather than just shooting you?
