Date: 2003-07-21 09:15 am (UTC)For example:
In Florida, a state that produces lage quantities of both orange juice and milk, there are laws "to protect competition in business" that require that locally produced orange juice be priced to include charges "as if it had to be transported from California" and that milk must be priced to include charges "as if it had to be shipped from Wisconsin", these extra charges going to the government, not to the producer etc.
Since this means that it is completely impossible for local OJ and milk to compete with imports from other states, producers have no choice but to ship them out of state where they have a chance at competing.
