Why Americans pay almost twice the world's price for sugar:

The U.S. Sugar Program is an outdated dinosaur of a program which offers taxpayer-funded loans to sugar conglomerates. The program was originally implemented to protect farmers’ incomes during the Great Depression, but now the sugar program remains the only commodity program without comprehensive reform in more than 80 years. The program keeps the price of domestic sugar almost double the world price. So, when you go to the store to buy a snack cake or anything sweetened, you pay much more.

In a 2017 study, the American Enterprise Institute concludes that the U.S. Sugar Program “is a protectionist scheme destined to transfer income to sugar growers and processors at the cost of sugar users and consumers.” The study projects a cost of up to $3.5 billion; which breaks down to an annual average of $70 million per state, in mostly higher grocery costs.

...In order to keep such a costly program in existence, American beet and cane sugar cartels have been throwing massive amounts of cash around Capitol Hill to keep the program alive. Both Republicans and Democrats in Congress receive money from these cartels. It seems that for some members of Congress, the gifts came early. The following Sweet 16 senators and representatives are deep in the pocket of the sugar cartels:

So is gold flake if you're so individually irresponsible you eat too much of it, you old, fat, socialist fuck.

Can't you find a Dr. Kevorkian-type to provide you a courage-substitute to finally get your dependent azz fully off the American taxpayer's dime?
