Joel Salatin discusses raw milk, farms, food freedom, and government intrusion with John Stossel. Joel Salatin is one of my favorite speakers and writers about both the culture of back-to-earth farming as well as libertarian philosophy.

During his time in Congress, Ron Paul introduced H.R. 1830, legislation that would decriminalize the sale of unpasteurized milk and milk products across state lines. On May 16, 2011, Congressman Paul spoke of H.R. 1830:

Hard as it is to believe, the federal government is actually spending time and money prosecuting small businesses for the “crime” of meeting their customers’ demand for unpasteurized milk! Recently the Food and Drug Administration conducted a year-long sting operation targeting Rainbow Acres Farms in Pennsylvania. As a result of this action, Rainbow Acres’ customers will no longer be able to purchase unpasteurized milk from this small Amish farm.

Mr. Speaker, many Americans who the government wishes to deny the ability to purchase unpasteurized milk have done their own research and come to the conclusion that unpasteurized milk is healthier than pasteurized milk. These Americans have the right to consume these products without having the federal government second-guess their judgment about what products best promote health. If there are legitimate concerns about the safety of unpasteurized milk, those concerns should be addressed at the state and local level.

In this 2012 presidential election, Ron Paul is the only candidate who has stood up for the right to drink raw milk. Paul recognizes that it is up to each of us as individuals in our local communities to take responsibility for what we put in our bodies.

“What is so dangerous about you making your own choice about whether or not you can drink raw milk? I think we ought to vote for the right to drink raw milk!” ~ Ron Paul
