To be fair, drinking raw milk can be very dangerous. Raw milk from industrially raised cows, that is. As I understand it, healthy grass-fed cows have high levels of acidity in their stomachs which kill off pathogens (e-coli etc.) making their milk harmless; industrially raised cows, however, do not, making the risk of falling sick as a result of drinking their milk quite high. Obviously, the honest thing to do would be to tell the consumer that, and to ban raw milk from industrial producers only, but that would mean admitting to the evils of industrial agriculture and government just doesn't want to do that, so we must all suffer...
