The Real Cost of $1 Milk.

from Stick Together · host Matt Kunkel

Australian supermarkets have pushed the price of milk down to the point where it is now cheaper than bottled water. This has caused pressure through the supply chain. While we hear a lot about the farmers, we don't often hear about the workers in the milk and other dairy processing plants. What does this price pressure mean for the workers and theregional communities that rely on the industry? This week we speak to a dairy worker of 35 years and the lead organiser for the NUW's dairy division.We also speak with the ASU's Lisa Darmanin about the push by western Melbourne councils to privatise in-home aged care and what it means for both workers and their clients.
