Generally speaking, every government in the world seeks to increase its advantage over its subjects (and therefore, to increase the DISADVANTAGE of its subjects in comparison to the state).
Thus, one should generally do the very opposite of what government advises–especially regarding investing or nutrition.
For years, observers have noted that the government’s “food pyramid”–which every school kid is forced to digest (no pun intended) from an early age–is largely a product of lobbying interests, such as Iowa grain growers.
Now Reason Magazine has insightfully pointed out that a prudent person would be wisest to do THE VERY OPPOSITE from whatever the government advises with regard to nutrition.
