Or figures out a way to grow mass quantities of sugar cane in North America. (Brazil is successful with ethanol as they ARE able to mass produce sugar cane.) Sugar cane ethanol yields a slightly better EROEI than corn based ethanol.

An ex of mine had gastric bypass. She still lived and ate like a fat girl. She would preach to me about a little glaze on the fish I ordered but spent weekends living on nothing but beer and didn't think twice about it. People that get fat off HFCS have behavior issues and will find something else to get fat on, be it beer, sugar, or whatever.

I'm against my tax money being used to subsidize unhealthy food, but I take my own responsibility for my health instead of throwing up my arms and saying "it's not my fault!! the food industry is evil!!"

Awesome, me too. So what were we disagreeing about again?

Edit: Oh there it is, you added it on at the end there. So, industries can't be evil or do wrong, and to imply otherwise is to wear a tin foil hat is what you're saying?

Right on. At least we agree about the tax subsidies and need for personal responsibility though.

everything begins with choice.

No. Wrong. Choice is an illusion.

Yeah...OK, Neo...

Why don't you run along and phone call yourself off the grid while us rational people have a grown up discussion, OK?

Jesus Christ, Kaneman...I'm starting to see what you mean about some people.
