Well, it's not that it started off as subsidies for these products, the subsidies appeared elsewhere with good intentions (Overproduce, stockpile, prevent famine + destitute farmers). It's just that then others hopped on board to make money on the cheap crops.Fuck me for having to subsidize some jerkoff's Big Mac,and oversized Walmart t-shirt.
