How would you feel as the price of steak and milk goes up? Would you vote to artificially limit prices? Would you vote to give corporations which make meat more money so they could give you cheaper beef? Heck, those prices are already subsidised by the government. Would you vote to remove those subsidies?

IDGAF. I'll drink milk & eat meat as long as I don't find it too expensive.

I'm well aware of farm subsidies. Don't agree and then if prices rise above my comfort zone... so be it.

So two follow up questions:

If you think the subsidies are bad, what if a party wanted to put on extra taxes due to carbon emissions? Would you vote for them?
If so, won't it be harder to break the habit when you're effectively priced out rather than earlier?
