Most of earth problems revolvs around money and so does this one. There is enugh food for every person on this planet! More than we can eat.The production is the same as it was if not higher . But, we are geting smaler numbers on our paychecks each month.So we can't buy as much as we did. BUT they don't want u to spend less!! U spend the same, if not more ,u just get less... U must ask ur self ,how many tons off food we trow away each day, becouse its out of date.. and what could we do with it.

@DarkstarNV Please sir! Tell us what the world was like before this?

Death to Monetary system!

@walter0bz There has been much deception along the way at every turn. But yes, the money system is a reflection of who we are and what we've accepted and allowed- and for it to change- we must change. We are the cause, and the money system is the tool that's been utilized to facilitate massive abuse- the masses have been deliberately 'de-educated' to not even comprehend the level of deception that's been done. Total re-education is required, as everything thats been taught was a lie for profit

- yup.
IMO ponzi-debt-money 'evolved' as a solution to other desires or to track 'rapid fossil-fueled progress'.. its the system people wanted, so those offering it became powerfull.
I agree stable money would be a benefit.
But I see money as a symptom not a cause.
I'm also fatalistic - where we are is unsolvable by any technological or social means - it will all end in tears. our species is not 'all powerfull'.

@walter0bz Humans have been bred as cheap labor, and those who gone before live off the following generation, so as the elderly increase, so must the young and as such it continues, necessitated in this crazy system in which you're born in debt and live on the backs of the 'children' to come. Consumption has been pushed for profit by deliberately linking people's ability to get income, to production, such that the option is to overconsume/produce or suffer- an entirely new system is required

Without fossil-fuels, earth will only support 2billon people.
-
if you think money/profit is the cause of scarcity, how do you explain the 8X multiple in human numbers since th industrial revolution.... 3X in the most recent 'lifetime'. Those trying to starve the poor aren't doing a very good job. Looks more like 'fossil-fueled' super-abundance allowing a population boom, then severe dissapointment when those pesky laws of nature catch up with us (i.e. finite energy stores that don't replenish). Sustainability would feed 2billion if we're lucky

Economics.
The price of food will go up, this will cause "Demand Destruction" (i.e. starvation for billions), then when the Demand is back in balance with the reduced post oil Supply, the price will go back to normal.
-
The human population has simply grown too large. Oil is so important for food commodities now days that the rising price guarantees expensive food. Humans are about to get a serious case of whoopass.
