Im sorry you cant grow an orange, and Im not sure why you need one. Also Im saying Im not dependent in any way on citrus farms. If they fail, its their own fault, and someone, in fact anyone could do better. I guess when I think about it, a corporate citrus farm isnt much more than a hedge fund to me. Their crops dying are just a stock going down. "Oh the oranges are dying!" They will be replaced. Oranges will be here long after we are gone.

These downvotes are AWESOME - (hellban me I can change my IP in 30 seconds) SO, the rules of VC and SV dont apply to oranges, I assume my posts were downvoted because oranges are a "precious" resource, even though no other country in the world has problems growing them, so Im being downvoted (and HOPEFULLY hellbanned) for calling out a corrupt, piece of shit US food cartel that is committing ritual suicide in its own crops. Oh "boo fucking hoo". Fact: No one needs OJ. Fact: The idiots that have pissed on their own crops are complaining about the fact they cant do their jobs. FACT: no one in silicon valley would have the fucking balls to complain when they cant run their own business but they feel sorry for pussy farmers who CANT RUN THEIR BUSINESS. In fact if these farmers were SV startups they would be taken out and shot by their own parents and pushed into the bay in front of hungry sharks.

  You are being downvoted for being an idiot. What you write makes no sense at all. The US is one of the last countries to be affected. The entire worlds production of oranges is falling. And there is absolutely NOTHING the growers can do about it. > and HOPEFULLY hellbanned If you are an idiot only about oranges then fine (everyone has their sore spot). But if you are an idiot for other things too then don't come back.

  Fact: No one needs OJ Think of this as a practice session. What happens if a blight strikes one of the world's staples? Like rice, or corn? If that happens, you're talking starvation on a global scale, not just disrupting someone's breakfast routine. So acquiring the skills to defend/defeat something like this will be very important to the race.
