Care to suplement my food budget to cover the over priced products I purchase to pay for theat wasteful and inefficient food surplus?

Nope. It's your fair share of the insurance against shortages.
If you can't afford the "over priced" food products that are in surplus because of government subsidies,
then there's no way you'd ever be able to afford them when the prices skyrocket due to shortages in a "free market".
You'd starve.
So be happy that we have such bountiful overproduction.

Private insurance would be better. Keep the government out of it.

I don't want to believe you are actually telling me that inefficient spending of taxpayer dollars is a good thing.

The subsidies should never have been started in the first place.........taxpayers supporting one segment of the population at the expense of another is not my idea of good, let alone smaller, government.
