I get an email about this every year – I have never actually pulled the trigger and bought it but it would be an interesting read. There are over 3,000 different subsidies. For my American readers, don’t be too smug there is a U.S. version of this and if I recall it has something like 20,000 different subsidy programs listed.

Note the French text discusses the 1,800 programs and the industries. Gravy for all! This drives Libertarians nuts but the reality is that government is primarily a bank these days. It takes money from the collective and doles it out to what it perceives to be the worthy causes with a sprinkle of politics and ideology on top. Old Frederic Bastiat is rolling over in his grave.
