    Subsidies increase access, but they don’t create demand in and of themself

    If something is significantly lowered in price, wouldn’t that affect demand? If not, why would it suddenly work differently?

    You should also see how much of the EU budget directly goes to farming. That’s just direct subsidies, there’s also loads of indirect ones.
