From The End Is Near And It’s Going To Be Awesome, by Kevin D. Williamson. Broadside Books, 2013.

Subsidizing consumption of a good while paying no attention to its production leads either to higher prices or some other kind of economic distortion.
I love it when someone states a proposition so succinctly.
