Why is it that being healthy is so expensive? Why is it that being able to drive a hybrid car, that is supposedly better for the environment, is so expensive?

In my opinion, the health food craze is a con game. The hybrid car is a con game. Going "Green" is a con game. What better way to advertise? Just tell people that they are helping the environment by driving this ridiculous looking $30k car. Just tell people to buy the natural foods that run your weekly grocery bill up to $200.00.

If all of this stuff is so important, why is it all too expensive for poor or middle class people to afford it?

Why is it cheaper to buy Rocky Road ice cream instead of frozen yogurt?

Why is it cheaper to buy a gas guzzling Cadillac instead of a Toyota Hybrid?

Are we all suckers? Is it just easy advertising? Guilt us into spending too much money.

If you want to solve the gas crisis, make Hybrids cheaper(If they are actually more environmentally friendly). If you want to solve the healthcare crisis, let people be able to afford to eat healthy. There, problems solved.
