World food balance lost?? - about foodproblem

[Non-Sectarian Bastard!]

Why is it ok with captalists that africans are dying of hunger and americans of fatness??
Can one of u morons plz explain that.

[Solzhenitsyn]

African nations simply lack the infrastructure to move goods from point A to point B. Corruption, crime and graft are rampant. No amount of food donations can help that.

[LOIC]

Capitalists are egoist pigs.
I'm really pissed off when I see all these tv reports on obesity when so much people are starving everywhere in the world.
This is not a question of lack of infrastructure.
Governements of rich countries like to see africans dying from starvation so they can steal the richness of their land.
What is happening actually(and not only in africa)is a genocide.
Rich governments let all these people die when they could help them and save thousands of lives to continue to rule the world and keep all the richness for them.
Same thing with aids and a lot of other diseases.

What a sick excuse that u cant help africa cause of their lack of roads and infrastructure. Infrastructure isnt something natural, ppl build it. So why not in africa. If i think how many money the secret services of america use. I have to throw up. it makes me sick. If they would stop with the secret services for a decade u could build up whole africa. With this u solve a lot of wars and u dont have to send UN soldiers.
What have you to say about that??

This shows the true capitalism. Corn is burned in one part of the world because they are not making profit of selling it (remember what comerade Marx said about capitalism and over-production), while in another prt of the world, people are dying of hunger because they are to poor to buy food.

Just think of how little money this would cost to solve, if the governments interfered directly...

don't mix up capitalists with consumers

[Goldfinger]

Altough consumers aren't innocent, they're not evil. Capitalists are responsible for mass consumerism, and they are guilty as hell. And hell is very, very gulity, folks.

[James]

Uh hu

In my opinion we are all consumers in Britain, however, some of these are the actual capitalists (rather alot).
Mass Consumers on the whole are like sheep (my self included i imagine), not really aware or caring. These are the people that will just want to live their life. They don't care what system they are in.

Lets all go and find out what the US(the biggest Capitalist nation in the world) is doing for Africa!!!!!

WOW, thats more than you and your band of communists are doing CCCP!!

Half of the time the Africans don't even accept the food we do give them. We've definitley been over this before though...

[Capitalist Imperial]

Not only is Tkinter right on the $$$, but the United States is IN NO WAY responsible for the famine in Africa!!!

There has been Famine in Africa long before the US or Capitalism were born!

I have a novel idea, why don't we hold Africa responsible for Africa's problems?

Its crazy, its a stretch, I know, but work with me.



This scapegoating makes me absolutely sick.

"This scapegoating makes me absolutely sick."

It really is out of control.
