Jesus, this is the first decent post I've seen by a PAP IB clown. I must be hallucinating, or the sun's going to rise in the west today.
But kudos. Good vid, good msg. Now send it your Mastahs!

I am touched. Please impart me your wisdom and enlighten me. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
We are human farming ourselves.
There are plenty of food, some times plenty if the harvest is good. But food is food is a perishable product, unless find angmoh they can canned it, crushed into powder call it vitamin pills.
The problem is with transport cost and who is going to foot this bill which will bankrupt even UNCHR. Given 1 million ton of rice, harvest is good, to give away free, how many cargo container required to transport these excess rice?
Also even if give to one country it will deflate the rice industry prices of rice and make supplier also lose money. So what's next? Leave it to the paddy rats to finish them is best option.

One UN agency calculated that we produce about 10-15% in excess of the food we need to feed all 6 billion people in the world. But starvation and malnutrition persist because:
1. The food is not distributed evenly because of the free market system where those with all the money get to hoard the food, drive up prices and waste it. The average American wastes about 25% of F & B purchased; and Americans as a whole (including supermart chains) waste 90 billion pounds of food a year
2. Most of the excess food is rotting away in granaries because agricultural subsidies given to farmers in First World nations are dependent on world food prices, which are in turn determined by traders in the commodities markets. In a bountiful year, farmers hoard food to keep prices high, and reduce supply to qualify for govt subsidies. Who suffers? – the poor in the developing and less developed nations.
3. 80% of the food supply is now controlled by global giants like Unilever, and it's in their interests to prop up food prices to maintain profits, so excess supply of food is simply thrown or burnt away.

If the harvest is too good, they normally dump it into rivers as the glut would cause the prices to fall.
