You have to find this on facebook and read the comments that add to them.

"The cow growing corporation buys the local leaders to increase taxes for cows, so you will have to sell your cow to them, under the real market value; then you will have to buy milk from them because they will make a farm in your town, and the taxes will suddenly disappear just for them, because they are a big investor...so you buy the milk from them at double the price, even though they have minimal costs making it"

"They forgot to add a few lines. Like when you have enough money you influence politicians to change the rules to protect your cows and disallow anyone else from owning cows so you become a monopoly."
