No Big Surprise

Just add it to the list of pyramid schemes Americans are running.

“Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine said consumers were paying higher prices for organic food because of its perceived health benefits, creating a global organic market worth an estimated $48 billion in 2007. A systematic review of 162 scientific papers published in the scientific literature over the last 50 years, however, found there was no significant difference.”

We borrow money on our houses with over-inflated fake value to pay for overinflated foods with fake health benefits and to pay for "greener" automobiles and healthcare we don't need. Show me some people who contribute more to the world than they take out of it. Please. And I mean really contribute, like by making shit that is useful.
