govt (money scammed from peoples labour) subsidies have being around for a long time. famers here have recieved public money to pollute our landscapes. the encouragement (in part made trendy by american sitcoms) to dwell in apartments, and policies that create a breakdown in decent society, have tricked people to become dependent on corporations, they sell them poisoned food, then they become dependent on drug dispensing doctors, who also btw, recieve subsidies. it is evident, that generally, we are the agents of our own demise.
