28. "When it does, it will be marvelous"
You'll have to pardon me if I take a dubious view of that leap of faith.

It's the sort of thing propounded by religious fanatics and scruffy, red-bandana-wearing persons who thrust their fist in the air and salute "the REVOLUTION!" rather than globalization as the source of all that expected marvellousness.

And as evils of the world go, I think you'll find that among the things causing poverty and death in the third world, US sugar quotas aren't exactly at (nor near) the top of the list.
