When Government Subsidies Stopped, Doritos Got 15% Cheaper

The moment the government stopped subsidizing one small corner of the economy, prices dropped by 15% within a week.
RFK didn’t regulate PepsiCo. He didn’t cap prices. He didn’t launch an antitrust investigation. He simply stopped the government from funneling taxpayer dollars into unhealthy food… and the market corrected overnight.
Now imagine what would happen if the government stopped subsidizing entire industries— the defense contractors billing $10,000 for a toilet seat, the universities charging $85,000 for a degree in gender studies, the healthcare system where nobody can tell you what anything costs.
We might finally find out how much of this economy is real.
Proof that what many have been saying for a long time is true. Govt. "assistance" makes prices go up. Want to bring down inflation? Stopping govt. subsidies would be a good start.
