A member of USMB posted his opinion about coming food shortages earlier today. I want to respond here because people are civil on CDZ. I don't remember where his post is, but those who responded were incredibly hateful, with nothing pertinent to say.
Food shortages aren't coming - they are here. Anyone who thinks they are not, is deluded. Perhaps the food i . . . . . .
Those businesses who depend on donations of money or food to help out the poor are going to close down as those with money no longer have enough for charity. Those who have part-time work and have a family will need to learn about the food bank. Government generates problems where there aren't any. Poor people have as much right to eat as wealthy people.
If you are disabled and can't work. there area various ways of getting financial assistance. My sister has MS. She has had it for over 40 years; her case is severe and she has not been able to work for at least 30 years. She receives financial benefits for disabled people from the government.A member of USMB posted his opinion about coming food shortages earlier today.

It is obscene for children to starve. There is enough food on this planet to feed everyone all they want. The problem is getting to it. We send protein powder to a third world country by the airplane load, and the local war lords keep it because they want those who are starving to die.
Then there are government controls. I can only speak about my personal experience here. I don't know how the governments of other countries control the food. I was allowed food stamps while my disability case was in limbo. I received $13.00 a month. The allotment can be carried over from one month to the next. I would wait, if I could, until I had 3 months worth, and then I would purchase meat.
We have a food bank here. I do not go there even though I am qualified now, just for the food bank, not food stamps. I live alone, and received way too much food from the food bank because they think of families. You leave there with a grocery cart full of food. It will never be the same thing twice. They share what is contributed. If they got a load of apples, you get a 10# bag. There might be milk, sometimes meat - hot dogs, maybe frozen chicken. It will not generally be brand name items, and sometimes the expiration date was 2 days before you brought it home. People come on a first come first served basis.
There are shelters and soup kitchens around town, mostly run by the churches. Restaurants are good about donating excess foods to theses places.

What is the point of this thread?
The famine that is coming is predicted in the bible. The world shall know hunger - even America - and those who belong to the LORD shall know the power and provision of God. It's coming. Trust in Jesus and ask Him to be your provider in the days ahead.

Or we could just systemically reduce the world population until we no longer have food shortages.
"Systematically managed through education"... heh.

You smirk because you don't understand what I'm saying. An educated person would know. The more highly education a people are, the lower their population growth. The most highly educated countries have near zero population growth. Education = zero or near zero population growth. Educated people know this w/o it having to be explained to them.
No. You are trying to make a point when you have no point. I am not at all talking about something that is enforced. I lived in Austria. They have a very highly educated populace. They have near zero population growth. It is not enforced in any way at all whatever. It is this way in countries with a high education level among its population. People realize that managing a family of four (two kids) results in a much better life for their children and themselves. It's really a DUH. You don't want to get it or can't."Systematically managed through education"... heh.

Look at who is education whom, and at whose expense, and you might begin to see where the force comes in. Then again, you might not.
Are you trying to say something about grammar? Because you don't appear to understand when to use who or whom at all.

Coercive manipulation of society? Sure, being an educated, productive member of society is being manipulated. The more highly educated people are, the better they are able to think critically and not be manipulated by anyone.Are you trying to say something about grammar?

I'm making a point more important than grammar. People tend to see government "educating" people as something fundamentally different than laws that mandate behavior. Just like they see tax "incentives" as somehow innocuous. But they all boil down to coercive manipulation of society. Sometimes, that's necessary. But let's not kid ourselves about what's going on.

lol An anti-intellectual, anti-education person who believes education is some kind of brain washing. That's really, really silly. Quite foolish.Coercive manipulation of society?

That's what I thought. You've already been "educated". Good luck with your grammar expertise.
