5. Well nobody was going to eat that food anyway right?

I mean there isnt' any huge mass of people in the third world that depend upon the grain surpluses of the US to provide them the cheap grain that keeps them alive. Right?

It rots in the silos, goes to feed pigs and is used in pellet stoves. Who cares.

The above will be the idiot opinion spouted be the lapdog media shortly before the worldwide wave of food riots. Malthus was right.
