"But the sugar epidemic has become such a peril to public health that government should act. Not to confiscate sugar from people's homes, but to end sugar subsidies, ban all advertising of sugar-laden products to children, get soft drinks out of schools, and educate Americans about the perils of too much refined sugar."

Yes!!!! Between the corn industry and the sugar industries, if they cut subsidies even 50% we'd save a LOT of money.
