Sugar and its companion sweeteners are addictive; so are government subsidies. Individual Americans should break the sweets habit and demand their government wean corn farmers off the government dole.
The FDIC wants banks to stand on their own two feet, but withdrawing insurance on big checking accounts won't be popular.

Masters of marketing 2

It seems that all of our habits we label as "bad" are programmed as "automatic behavior" into us by consumer product companies. We spend a huge chunk of our life trying to free ourselves from these bad habits.
These malhabits -as in malware- run in the background and use up energy and influence our decision making process.
  • Addiction to food
  • Addiction to drugs
  • Addiction to credit card debt
are all manufactured by global corporations -the unhuman organisms- to make humans sick and keep them sick in order to perpetuate their growth. Ok, everyone knows this already. Is there anything I can do as an individual? Or am I supposed to be fatalistic and accept the fact that my habits will be formed by unhuman master marketers?
This New York Times article is informative and leaves no room for doubt that global corporations are masters of human programming. Their impact on human behavior is immense. They define how humanity live all over the globe.
Let's learn the science of habit hacking so that we are better informed against the entertaining propaganda unhuman organisms use to program an individual into a consumer.
