What's a populist idea that makes minimal sense but lots of jobs without a little subsidy to grease the rediculous process?!

What could be more selfish than taking food out of a system that is short food to begin with to put it through an expensive inefficient process to create a little more energy?

What if the US did something that caused a basic food staple to us, say bread for example to triple in costs, all so they could stuff themselves with a little more energy that is space heating ever expanding homes or powering ever expanding vehicles? We'd think they are the worst people on earth, yet we do it and "it seems to make sense because it will artificially create a few jobs".
