It’s not called capitalism you moron. When the gov’t FORCES us to buy an inferior product, when the gov’t slaps a 50cent a gallon tariff on imported ethanol, and when the gov’t offers MASSIVE tax breaks to ethanol producers, what you get is more akin to the command economy of the USSR than free market capitalism.
I recommend you read Hayek’s The Road to Serfdom if you want to actually educate yourself on what a free market economy looks like and how when gov’t inserts itself in the conomy, bad things are bound to happen.
Try to curb your enthusiasm for personal insults.
I understand that the government has insinuated its influence into our energy, food and manufacturing industries. Soft socialism and destructive.
What are your solutions to this entrenched status quo?
Taxpayers will not benefit if the subsidies are removed - we will be ‘punished’ with higher prices. Any savings will not be realized by reduced government spending - the ‘subsidies’ will be transferred to other programs.
We have been sucked into the swamp and the alligators are eating us - munching from the feet or the head - what’s the difference?
