Well, that's in addition to the only three things that our government is currently subsidizing: the military, the high-fructose corn syrup producers/growers, and the labor costs for the high-tech companies. While this isn't perfect, it could be much worse.

I am sure in almost any other First/Second World country things are in fact much worse, and your govt also subsidizes your healthcare, your high school and college education, your low-tech and unskilled workers, your welfare bums, your media and TV companies, and so on.

See, there's a reason US of A is still number one.
