I live in America, where our farming subsidies have our farmers throwing food out because it is so abundant. The Mollic soil profile of the American Midwest will keep Americans and alot of the world fed during the coming food shortage. It is my firm belief that in the years to come we will still be eating comfortably. The biggest food emergency here is of a different kind. When you look at poor people from any other country they are usually emaciated, carrying a few infections, and desperate for a meal. In America our poor are forced to eat fast food. The poor of America are fat, fat beyond some peoples wildest dreams. The most imminent food security problem here, is going to be the mass die off of obese individuals. The problem is that fast food is tasty, cheap, and requires no preperation. But I refuse to eat that vile puke. However poverty stricken Americans, who many times are employed by these fast food joints, eat it daily. How can we provide a healthy, desireable, alternative to these fast food places? My idea is that we have stricter FDA regulations on what we can feed our citizens. But this is America and you have the freedom to destroy yourself as long as the government gets taxes from it. So really the solution to this problem is education, we need to let people know McDonalds is going to kill them.
