“Government subsidizes high calorie junk foods for one thing.”

I didn’t realize food stamps and the Independence Card were calorie discriminatory.

No, farm supports are the subsidies I’m talking about. My only example is the subsidy for the high fructose corn syrup. Probably corn oil as well. So fried foods, high sugar foods are artificially inexpensive.
