    "content": "Subsidies of fuel end up benefiting the richer echelons of society because they are the ones who consume more of that product than the poor people. The poor people in Kenya, for example, spend more of their money on kerosene. They do not spend it on fuel guzzlers like the rich echelons of society. So, we do not need to subsidize lifestyles of rich people who use more fuel than poor people. The right way to do it is to give the poor people money directly, so that they can buy the fuel and food themselves. Do not subsidise everybody. Why do you need to subsidise Mr. Pesa, who can afford to buy a Mercedes Benz, drive it on leisure to Maasai Mara and do all those other things?"
