The answer, of course, is that non-pasteurized
milk isn’t hazardous at all. It’s just a lot
tougher to regulate and make money from it.
Think about it: By legislating against the sale or distribution of raw milk, states force farmers to sell their milk (at a fraction of market value, by the way) to the big milk processors. This creates a “paper trail” on the milk, which can then be used as the basis for collecting tax revenue from those processors--and likely the farmers, too.
And how else could they get away with this kind of shameless money-grubbing except under the guise of a public health concern? It’s just one more example of how your healthy, natural dietary options are being sold down the river by a bunch of dollar-crazed bureaucrat shakedown artists.
