It would be if I were making a direct comparison, but I really intended to simply be comparing the amounts of money and the scale of the projects - one bridge vs. subsidies for the entire countries agricultural industry. In short, I was simply using the bridge to show how small an amount of money we are talking about when we are talking about subsidies ... the fact that it was New York City would be related more to Sway's point.

In any case, I'm talking about the principle of being 100% independent of subsidies, which I'm encouraging.

I'm all for that.
Let's get rid of subsidies altogether.
