(28,941 posts)Traditional capitalism: Buys every functioning cow for 10 cents on the dollar. Overcharges for the milk, then when consumers start using goat's milk, whine and demand the gov't bail them out. With the bail out money starts buying up goats.

(50,559 posts)You have no cows.
You sell the meat from 800 cows. You sell the milk from 400 more. You claim an agricultural tax deduction for your 800-acre pastures which wouldn't be safe to pasture livestock on because there are all these little holes on them.
Most of the time, when someone comes to collect their meat or milk you're able to stall them with claims that high quality products like yours can't be rushed. When someone actually does pick up their products, they're always amazed the meat is already in little foam trays and the milk is in cartons.

(20,692 posts)You have two cows. You can't sleep at night because one is slightly taller, one keeps eating more than the other, they keep switching places in the barn, and they eat the hay and grain unevenly in the trough, making you have to scoop out the uneaten hay and grain, and feed it to them by hand until it's gone because the old hay and grain can't touch the new hay and grain.
