Humans as festering carriers of disease should be discouraged in the general population.
I don't see the people who consume raw milk products around the world being so much the "picture of health". Quite frankly they all look like they could use a biohazard disinfectant shower.
So... people can't be allowed the freedom to choose their own milk because they would become festering carriers of disease, finally destroying society as we know it?

Or... maybe this is simply about control. As far as I know, people around the world who consume raw milk haven't suffered severe health problems that warrant the use of violence to prevent.
But our government is just protecting you from the horrors of raw milk.
The Big Ag Dairy farmers are 100% behind this because raw milk free from hormones and antibiotics from a cow that actually gets to eat grass and see the sun is BAD FOR YOU.
FWIW the niche market for direct sales of milk, meat, veggies from small farmers who do not use chemicals, hormones or antibiotics and raise their livestock on pastures is gaining momentum. They are turning people away.
Raw milk is legal in Ca!! It is illegal to ship raw milk across state lines according to the Federal Government. Each state makes its own laws about raw milk.
Do people not see it as being a problem that the government feels the need to CONTROL what we are eating and drinking? Seriously, armed raids on raw milk? You're ok with this?!?
[MOD CUT] Look into Monsanto (Monsanto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) and the revolving door they have with the USDA and FDA. The corruption within the government is sickening!

These harmful bacteria can seriously affect the health of anyone who drinks raw milk, or eats foods made from raw milk. However, the bacteria in raw milk can be especially dangerous to pregnant women, children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems.
