And don' t think it will get better. I hesitate to say this and get certain people riled into talking about going vegan but so much of our water and grain goes into food animals to satisfy the meat craving without which the world population could be fed and watered. It will only get worse with China's development. If we were to cut our meat consumption, we would have enough to stop hunger. And when people are hungry, and have weapons, they are dangerous. The "West" has become a symbol of the haves versus the have nots. As for all the money that is sent abroad, I am appalled. For sure little of it gets to the people..and for sure not in our name. And now of all times, when our population is in such dire circumstance, it is time to cut the payoffs and help our own people.
