The US exports billions upon billions of dollars worth of food annually, mostly to Canada and China. The infrastructure is already in place. We can deploy military technology anywhere in the world, but we can't export food? C'mon. It's not a technological issue in the least anymore. > "that's why we don't do it, it isn't because of a zero-sum neoliberal worldview; it's because no one wants to pay for it." Uh, the zero-sum neoliberal worldview is EXACTLY why we don't do it - because such a worldview says that if no one wants to pay for it then it's not worth it despite the fact that it could vastly improve welfare throughout the world and ensure more peace and stability than any "democracy spreading" wars ever could. >"And we aren't a Christian nation, we're a secular nation with a lot of Christians, huge difference." If you want to play semantics, fine you're right. There is no state religion (excepting the fact that christianity is part of our founding myth, it's all over the US currency, in our pledge of allegiance, in our symbology etc). But the point is there are hundreds of millions of Christians in this country, a religion whose foundational text (New Testament) is filled with endless cries to help the poor, to give away the material pleasures of life to help another, and yet we embrace the exact opposite. It's an example of how we've perverted our principles.
