> If farmers can get rich growing crops, there will never be a famine. Tell that the Irish, they were exporting food while suffering from the Great Famine. The farmers and landowners had no reason to help during the famine as it was more profitable to export. Even today we throw away food for the simple reason that a shorter fake shelf life has been shown to increase profits over the actual shelf life. There is simply no profit to be made from redistributing the over abundance of food to people in need, worse it would cost money making a profit oriented person just shudder at the thought.
