Food is being positioned as a right.<br /><br />Now, I really think there is no reason for people to starve in the world.

They'll want it for free.ambisinistralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03836786826294202405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16821859.post-33433151851390117242011-03-30T11:57:07.689-06:002011-03-30T11:57:07.689-06:00Ok, as an American, why aren't we trading ou...Ok, as an American, why aren't we trading our food for Oil ?
