We're all slaves to the bottom quintile and the collection of megacorporations that exploit the various subsidies lavished upon it

For example, the productive are taxed to fund SNAP, which the bottom quintile uses to buy carbonated corn syrup called soda, and SNAP is about a quarter of Coca-Cola/PepsiCo revenue.  - Bill Brindley

Soda is the number one item bought with SNAP. 

• We then are taxed yet more to fund the Medicaid for the bottom quintile, so our tax dollars can pay for the diabetes treatments for the corn syrup enjoyers, so they can continue consuming more corn syrup while relying on SNAP and Medicaid.
• So, those who are destroying the West's topsoil at a rapid rate to grow corn benefit (they're subsidized through other programs as well), Pepsi and Coca Cola benefit, and the bottom quintile benefits.

The average net taxpayer, on the other hand, receives absolutely no benefits from this...
