“...so grow your own food and develop your own land instead of relying on others to spoon feed you” – seems like an unfairly harsh statement. Do you grow your own food and develope your own land?

“...the country in question too dependent on the food shipments, and has decreased their own food production in expectation of someone handing it to them on a silver platter” – really? Please site facts that support this opinion. According to your source, food production has decreased due to less land available, not because they are anticipating a freebie. What if your crop is destroyed by by drought, natural disasters, or pest infestations? Would you starve or take a ‘hand out’?

Observer - 05 05 08 - 18:46

The UN will always do whatever it can to make people completely dependent on the UN and governments. They can control the health and vitality of the people. It is absurd

"The UN will always do whatever it can to make people completely dependent on the UN and governments. They can control the health and vitality of the people. It is absurd"
i never thought of it that way before but when you point it out it seems completly obvious
if the us and canada really wanted to help they could we have more then enough money and enough food to send to them

i think we could have organized groups, everyone helping out to feed everybody.
Becuase under certain circumstances, it would be very difficult, maybe impossible to have your own food. Unless you’r hunting your own game. Then i guess you can’t go wrong.

Don’t forget the meat industry, one of the biggest causes of hunger, hey take 16 pounds of grain to raise one pound of beef. The cattle of the world eat enough food to fill the caloric needs of 8 billion people, more then the population of the world.
