Good evening fine gentlement. I suggest we take a moment to discuss real politics, instead of slop about owning the other side in elections.The spanish governmend mandates that tons of olive oil will be dumped so that olive oil prices don't go too low. This needs to be mandated because, naturally, in a free market, no one would want to dump their own oil. They could form a cartel, but we'd still have smaller brands who would then expand, or foreign oil.To a midwit, this just means evil capitalist greed did it again, and it means the government has to do more against capitalists.To me, it means a few things.>government acknowledges libertarian economic theory (supply and demand) when they want>now the working man will have to pay more for a decent diet, thank you government from protecting our precious land owners!>all this while we're importing massive amounts of african olive oil
>make endless amounts of adulterated fake oil>price dropsHow could this be happening to us?
>>545822430Why wouldn't the government want spanish olive oil as cheap as possible?
>>545822430is the olive oil in our stores shit since it's only 5€? how could olive oil cost three times as much in the area where the olive trees grow?
>>545822430Its because the Jews want you to buy the unhealthier alternative that is sunflower oil
Lets say you have a 20 oz bottle of olive oil for $10. You put it in 5 little 4 oz bottle and sell it as gun oil for $12 a bottle. All the gun oil I use isn't petroleum based. >t. capitalist
>>545822670Because in bourgeois democracies, the State serves the interests of capital
>>545823114I don't think you can use vegetable oil on guns.
>>545823114>>t. capitalistDo you own the means of production as in a factory? Or are you a small business owner aka a petit bourgeois aka still a worker
>>545822769>how could olive oil cost three times as much in the area where the olive trees grow?this country is ruled by demons and their retard slaves (me), violence is the only solution.
>>545822430I thought this was bottles of wine, obviously it's gay olive oil because spaniards are gay
Hope long does it keep for? Why not a strategic olive oil Reserve.
>>545823614Attention, readers! Praises for the astonishing English cuisine! pd: nigger
>>545822430Shame. Olive oil is literally the nectar of the gods. Way better than sneed oils.
>>545823631because men use butter, fuck outta here with the gay olive oil. If olive oil can be used, you can rest assured that butter is better in every scenario.
>>545822430>This needs to be mandated because, naturally, in a free market, no one would want to dump their own oil.Wrong.During the US Great Depression, farmers were throwing away milk, fruits and vegetables.A few years ago, sheep herders in Sardinia were throwing away milk because the sale price dropped below production cost.No government mandate necessary.
>>545823752you'd pour olive oil all over your toast like some kind of strange spaniard
>>545822430That's an old picture, maybe from last year when olive oil was fucking expensive.Right now that same bottles go for 7,79€ in Caprabo, and has a 35% discount if you buy 2 liters.Anyway that brand sucks Borges olive oil is better.
>>545823847Olive oil is far better in all ways than butta', fuking indu nigger, just search in web, nigger retard
>>545822430Most olive oil on the market is fake. You really have to go out of your way to get the real stuff in most places. The commercial 'olive' oil is just flavored veggie/soi oil. The real stuff is amazing and great for you.
>>545823982no? I dont need to search something I can clearly discern as fact. Butter > olive oil.show me your olive oil toast, your jacket potato with olive oil, the only thing it'd be better for than butter is for oiling bearings
>>545822651no this is spanish olive oil of the highest quality. they're just dumping it anyway. god forbid the working man can afford decent oil.>>545822670they want to protect precious landowners so they make sure the working man has to pay more for a decent diet
>>545824027In my village in Cuenca, which has fewer than 100 inhabitants, one of the best olive oils in Spain is produced. I’ll just say this: any dish prepared with other oils, fats, or butter is absolute rubbish compared to the quality of this olive oil. It honestly saddens me that some people cook exclusively with butter—it completely ruins the flavor of everything—whereas olive oil is liquid gold.
>>545824027Plenty of times the best source of real olive oil isn't the high end brands, its the generic store brands from big retailers because they sell so much that a bootleg suppliers simply can't supply enough. It's like trying to sell horse meat labeled as beef to McDonald's, there's just not enough horses grind turn to mince.
>>545822769that's an old photo from when it was scarceri'd say 5€ sounds about right considering it's been very cheap lately here as well, but in order to get good olive oil, just check color and smell, and get the one that says extra virgin
>>545824081not going to fall in more raggebait rachid
>>545823041based>>545823114then that gun will smell like olive oil...
>>545822430What a bafoon.One of the main problems destruction of USAID caused was to harm farmers. For optimal land managment you need a more complex model than "libertarian economics", also known as high school economics. When considering the variables of production for acres and acres of nature influenced farmland you can neither predict nor control output. Say weather creates a bumper crop and thr market is flooded with product. Many if not all farmers would spend mire in production than they were able to recoup from sales. Your ignorance of economics is why you are Libertarian.
>>545823223burgeois democracy? burgeois democracy would be switzerland or liechtenstein. europe is declining hard, there's nothing burgeois about this struggling "middle class". we're poor and pathetic. the UK too but Spain is worse.
>>545824298>waaaaaaah you're indian>waaaaaaaaaaaah I dont have an argument any more im going to call it ragebaitnothing personnel kid, butter is just better is all, be objective and stop getting emotional. Okay you like olive oil, but it's shit
>>545822430That's the dumbest shit you coños came up with. How about selling that extra olive oil? Or use for diesel idk.
if your olive oil doesnt smell 'fruity' it was chemically washed and thus lost its light aromas. this washing is done to otherwise unpalatable garbage shit oil. dont eat that trash. its actually very easy to tell. once you know a good brand just keep buying that
>>545824442Do you actually think Portugal and Spain sell shitty olive oil? You clearly don't know the Iberian market. The cheapo brand beats your expensive brand.
>>545822430are those 1L bottles?
>>545823787The government mandate ensures that one bad actor cannot harm the market for others. Say a farmer learned his beliefs were wrong and planned to neck himself. He could sell all his oil scrapt the next season and leave the cash to his kids. This could potentially bankrupt several other farmers in the process. This is a complex system way beyond supply and demand smooth brain economics.
>>545824501i am not trying to lecture people who can buy that from local farmers i am trying to warn the people who have to buy mystery liquids that are mixtures of god knows what and refined multiple times. if you live north of the alps detecting genuine olive oil is a skill few people have
>>545824555They are yes.
>>545824619Fair enough
>>545822670Itnis a comodity and there is limited demand for it. Once demand is hit anything extra cuts into next seasons sales.
>>545824263It's the same kind of oil from the same fucking sources. Counterfeight olive oil was originally done as a cost saving measure and from shortages than they realized they could still charge just as much.The real stuff if you ever encountered it cannot be faked. The taste and smell alone are unbelievable.>>545824212I've had the real deal here but you REALLY have to go out of your way to find any and it ain't cheap. All the bulk exported stuff ALWAYS fakes their 'olive' oil. So you have to find a small dealer usually a specialty one, who don't bother jumping through all the hoops and bribes to sell bulk amounts of fake olive slop.I really envy the places with local sources. Even the fucking Italians with their Italian mafia don't bother selling fake olive oil to the locals. Exported though? Yeah, you ain't ever gonna taste legit Italian olive oil. Never gonna happen. Except for the USA those fuckers STILL sell you the fake stuff, despite us having regions where you can in fact grow olives. Still just as fake as the imported stuff.At least with honey, there are always local providers so it's not hard to get the real stuff.
>>545823787>throwing away milk, fruits and vegetablesbecause they rot quickly, unlike olive oil
>>545822670holy baguette!such blatant antisemitism
>>545822430I for one believe that the ocean floors are covered in layers upon layers upon layers of previous model year cars and vehicles all around the globe.
>>545824646I buy directly from producers, costs a bit more than the supermarket but those are now 90% EU trash, if I was better and had more time/money I would build relationships with all the local producers and only buy local
