When I got to Canada, I went shopping and was surprised. Blimey! Great! Wow! I especially admired dairy products. "I will be a farmer!" - I decided. If there is such an abundance of food, then the farmers certainly ride like cheese in butter. I became a beekeeper farmer. I go to my neighbor. I saw that he was holding cows. I tell him:

- Paul, sell milk.

“No,” Paul says, “I can't sell.

-Then let's do this, I'll give you honey, and you give me milk.

“I can't do that,” Paul says.

-Why?

- They'll put me in jail.

It turns out that in Canada someone is prohibited from selling milk and dairy products from a farm. Farmers are obliged to hand over all milk to intermediaries who process milk into other dairy products, and some are pasteurized, make milk fat 0%, 1%, 2% and sell it in stores in cardboard boxes or in plastic bags.

- How much milk do you give, Paul, from your cows? I asked.

-Exactly as much as indicated in the quota that I bought. Not a liter more, not a liter less, says Paul.

-How much do you get paid for a liter of milk?

“We paid 18 cents, now they raised the price to 21 cents per liter,” Paul said.

-Listen, neighbor, - I tell him, - you can sell your milk for 2 dollars per liter, I'm ready to pay you that kind of money.

-Do you think you're the only one? Paul says. Many people come to me and ask me to sell milk at such a price. But I can’t do it! Understand?

“No, no,” I answer, not understanding anything at all with my chicken brains. - Whose cows? - I ask.

-My.

-Whose milk? - I continue to pry.

-My.

-Sell.

"They'll put me in jail and take the farm," Paul says sadly.

- Listen, neighbor, - I say, - your intermediaries make four liters of shit out of your one liter of milk and sell it for more than a dollar per liter. They rob you. And not only you.

- I know, - Paul scratches his head, - so I once signed a contract with them so as not to suffer with the sale. Then milk was cheap and it was difficult to sell. They drove up to us with contracts. Then in the government, they achieved the creation of an organization called the Milk Marketing Board, which banned the sale of milk from the farm. Then they introduced milk quotas.

- Can you solve this issue in the Government? I ask.

-We don't have that kind of money.

"Slaves," I thought, "chicken brains. To fall on an almost naked hook. Who are these crooks who so cleverly organized milk monopolies? But Paul, signing the contract, was thinking about something other than his own momentary personal gain? And the Government and Parliament "How did they not calculate the situation several moves ahead and contributed to the creation of large monopolies, and deprived their own citizens of the natural and legal right to freedom of choice? Was it also the personal benefit of each individual?"

And then a scandal broke out. There was one brave farmer who rushed into battle in hand-to-hand combat. Michael Schmidt. In March 1995, Michael asked a government agency (Ontario Milk Marketing Board) to allow him to sell real unpasteurized milk as an experiment, because in Ontario about 50 thousand people drink unpasteurized raw milk anyway (farmers themselves, their families, relatives and their closest friends are not informers).

The administration said, "No!" They referred to the government's uncompromising concern for the health of the people. The farmer did not believe this and began selling raw milk to the population. In September 1995, Schmidt was arrested, tried, given 2 years probation, and fined three thousand dollars. Confident in his righteousness, after the trial, Schmidt immediately proceeded to sell real milk to fifty Ontarian families. His cows are regularly examined by a veterinarian, and his glass and metal (stainless steel) equipment is kept sterile.

Schmidt declared: "I am fighting for the principle of freedom of choice guaranteed to us by the Constitution."

By 2006, Michael was selling raw real milk to one hundred and fifty families. Over the years, they tried to try him several times, warned that they would confiscate cows, a farm and equipment. To all threats, he replied: "We have the right to freedom of choice. If the Government tries to turn the threats into reality, I will go on a hunger strike."

And now this time has come. On November 21 of this year, when Michael drove out on his truck loaded with dairy products from his farm, he was surrounded by police cars. Products and all farm equipment for the production of cottage cheese, sour cream and butter were confiscated. Michael went on a hunger strike.

Having received this information, I thought. Of the two arguing sides, one is usually wrong, or, to put it mildly, has chicken brains. Why is Michael so reluctant? After all, the Government says: "We are worried about the life and health of the entire population."

Let's say, - I argued further, twisting my chicken brains into some semblance of convolutions, - but why is the Government so categorical on the milk and chicken fronts?

Cigarettes, for example, are unconditionally harmful to health, but they are not prohibited from being sold.

Alcohol? And here is the same picture.

Weapon? This is a direct threat to life. In 2006, more than 60 people were killed with the use of firearms. And only in Toronto.

Early sex? Doctors can attest to the dire health effects of early sex, especially on adolescent girls. But the law allows this to be done from the age of 14.

Some "public" figures are lobbying the government for the adoption of a law allowing sex from the age of 12.

Aircraft? How many lives do they claim when tragedy strikes? And tragedies happen, and systematically.

Cars? About 40-50 dead pedestrians a year, plus dead and disabled motorists. This is only in Toronto.

American food: spinach, carrot juice, tomato sauce, green onions and much more, from which a lot of patients and dozens of paralyzed people. According to official data, at least 365 reviews from the trade of low-quality products are announced in Canada every year. That is, every day something is prohibited for sale. And how many people get sick and doctors cannot establish from what products of the current, modern diet they got sick? What about some medications? It already looks like organized crime.

On all these fronts, the Government only pretends to be fighting.

Aha, now you will say: "Somehow so imperceptibly the author brings us to the idea that it is not Michael Schmidt, but the Government who has chicken brains."

And here you, dear readers, are deeply mistaken. Chicken brains, in fact, we have with you. We somehow very quickly forgot that for thousands of years in all countries of the world, children were fed up to a year with mother's milk, and then with cow's milk. A pot of milk, a bowl of honey and a crumb of bread are the food of our ancestors. Cow's milk - real, fresh. True, once in Russia there was a failure. A group of hardened terrorists, sitting in prisons, made inkwells from bread, filled them with milk and wrote fraudulent proclamations with this milk. By terror, when they came to power in 1917, these people left the people for many years without milk and bread. But milk has nothing to do with it, of course. It was simply misused.

So let's, contrary to the statement of Helena Blavatsky, analyze at least something, at least once in our life. For example, I noticed that when the health of the population suffers from the activities of large monopolies: the American agro-industrial complex, the tobacco empire, the alcoholic, pharmaceutical, automobile, aviation, sex empire, debauchery and pornography, then government officials are so soft and benevolent that it seems as if there is no Government at all. But as soon as single Canadian farmers make attempts to supply the population with traditionally good-quality food, then the administrative-police fist acts extremely harshly. Twenty armed police officers were conducting an operation to capture a farmer who was transporting high-quality agricultural products to the population. As Michael Schmidt told me, the police locked all the farm workers in the kitchen and looted the production facilities. "After this raid," says Michael, "milk yields dropped sharply. Even the cows got psychological stress. They are very sensitive to any rudeness, and here people were scouring the farm with weapons!"

Whose health is the government worried about? About the financial health of large monopolies? Most likely it is. Imagine other farmers following Michael Schmidt's example. The demand for real milk is very high, especially among ethnic groups from Europe, Asia and the Middle East. The revenues of resellers will plummet. But at the same time, the profit of the farmers will increase. Today, monopolies buy milk from farmers for 21 cents a liter, and Michael sells milk for $ 2 and 50 cents a liter, and no one complains about the high cost. Good product and expensive. The high income of farmers is also an incentive for young people to farm, rather than begging on the streets of Toronto. Children will not leave old farmers in the city to surrender to the clutches of drug dealers, replenish organized crime gangs or madly burn their young years, playing stupid computer games for days.

When I spoke with Michael Schmidt's son Markus, I was very impressed by his tact, very healthy reasoning and demeanor. Self-esteem and independence, based on the awareness of the importance of the work he is doing, is deeply striking. On November 21, the day the police arrested his father, Marcus displayed unprecedented composure. Several police officers, not busy with robbery on the farm and protecting Schmidt himself, decided to break into the house. Marcus asked them to show a search warrant for the house.

-We have a warrant, - the policeman answered, - he's in the car.

-Bring, please, - says Marcus, - I have to be sure that you have it.

The police did not have such a warrant and Marcus did not let them into the house. Markus is only 19 years old. He grew up on a farm and his father raised him as a real person.

Now about the quota. Let's say today you want to start farming. We decided to have cows. To be recognized as a farmer and intermediary companies agree to buy your milk, you need to have at least 25-30 cows. One cow costs about a thousand dollars. But you also have to buy a quota, i.e. permission to purchase cows. A quota for one cow costs 31 thousand dollars today. Multiply 31 thousand by 30 and you get about $ 1 million. Maybe your son, who has decided to become a farmer, can afford this? Let's take the average milk yield from one cow - 20 liters per day (in winter - 10-15 liters, in summer 25-30 liters). The dairy monopoly company will buy 1 liter of milk from you for 21 cents. So the cow gives you $ 4.20 per day. How many days will it take for a cow to return the money you paid for it? Divide 31 thousand by 4, 2, we get 7381 days or 20 years! Are you in a hurry somewhere?

Some reproach me for being more influenced by my own mind than by my heart. You, they say, live with your heart, perceive life with your heart. Well, I decided to take those figures that I have given above, with my heart. So it almost burst with indignation. Therefore, excuse me, I will continue to use my own brains, albeit chicken ones. I have them, along with my heart and other parts of the body, also from God.

So who wants to be a farmer today? Take your time to say that nobody. Lawyers and other wealthy people started buying quotas. Once they were given to farmers for free. Then they began to rise in price and reached as much as 31 thousand dollars. They began to trade in quotas and make money with them. I have not seen a single lawyer or his wife sitting under a cow with a milk box. There are quotas - no cows. There are "farmers" - no milk. Who is in control of the situation? The big monopolies that created the unconstitutional Milk Marketing Board? It seems so. So what is the Government afraid of and what and who is it protecting? Worried about the health and life of the population? I do not believe. The facts tell a different story. Worried about raising young people? I do not believe. The facts tell a different story. Worried about the well-being of farmers and improving their well-being? I do not believe. The facts tell a different story. Worried about super-profits from monopolies? Yes, I can see that it is. So money is the head of everything? It seems. Very similar.

The vast majority of people stop there. Sometimes, smiling condescendingly, they slap me on the shoulder, saying: "You yourself see, everything is only about money and they bother, everyone wants to put together capital. There is nothing wrong with that."

May be. But my chicken brains tell me something else. I see huge monopolies being created. They are like reservoirs of colossal wealth, on which even large fortunes begin to depend, not to mention dairy farms, chicken farms, etc. And then the question of independence and independence comes to the surface. What is the government or the people behind it afraid of? The fact that the population will start to get sick by eating good-quality food? Not logical.

Most likely, the goal is to deprive a person of independence of existence, i.e. take control of the sources of life. And this is much more important than any money. No matter how we have to bow our heads in the near future, substituting our neck under the yoke of slavery, just to get the right to exist.
