Independent working food relief programs are very successful, but I do agree that corrupt governments are one of the main problems when it comes to food distribution. You said it yourself, the food system needs to be re-thought out and needs to be controlled on a government indepent basis.

[tarnicles]

@LegendxWind Well, that is an acceptable argument. Sadly, it is not doable.'Relief' programs are nullified by the corruption of government officials.

However, India produces more than enough for all her people. The inefficient distribution system is largely responsible for the malnourished masses. People in distant villages go hungry as grain and fruits rot in Government storage for the want of efficient delivery. Stray cows on the other hand are quite readily available throughout the nation.

@R1kuTakao

Once more, thanks for clearing that up. Good to know you support pedophiles.

@tarnicles

I was referring to North America with my crop comment, as a large majority of crops here

are wasted on livestock operations in an inefficient ratio whereas if they were fed

to actual human beings, 800 million could be fed, and thats from crops in North America alone. My point is that the crops being wasted on livestock today could be shipped to India for food relief programs, but they aren't and by buying meat people are supporting the wasteful use of crops.

[tarnicles]

@LegendxWind So, here we have a case where the government gets to decide what the people eat. Moreover, 'ban on beef' is enforced by Hindu goons who form local outfits and gangs to hector restaurants and eateries into submission. Not a very ideal situation.

I just can't get over the 'paying for crops to be wasted' bit. LOL. You need to visit a third-world country forthwith. You'd be surprised and 'enlightened'.

[tarnicles]

@LegendxWind Never been to India, have you? Stray cows don't feed on 'crops', they feed on grass that grows on the roadsides, banana peels, agricultural refuse and rotting fruit. Most tribal groups DO NOT have any proscriptions against eating beef or pork ( a fact that kept them at a considerable distance from the mainstream Hindu society).

Recently, a state in central India enacted the 'Prohibition of Slaughter of Cow Progeny Amendment Bill'(!) that completely bans cow slaughter in that state.

@LegendxWind Yes I don't care if he is a pedophile because I don't care about his personal life. Is it a bad thing, yes but that's matter that regards the US law not a person's stand on it.
