Global Food Crisis Makes Currency Irrelevant

Today finance ministers from around the world held an emergency meeting in Washington to address food emergencies in 33 countries.   One reason for the shortage is the growing population that has surpassed the production of food through limited agricultural activity.  Population is growing and yet agriculture remains limited by the amount of land that is farmed.    Why have our political leaders been more focused on other issues when this could have been foretold decades if not centuries ago?  The answer lies once again in the oil industry.

The solution: Electric Cars Now!

The main reason for the food shortage is the growing demand for bio fuels.  Can you imagine burning food in automobiles while people are starving?   Why do we have such a situation?   The answer is clear.  In this age when development of technology has reached a level of astounding excellence we could have been driving electric cars decades ago.  The reason we do not drive electric cars is not because we are not capable of developing the technology.  The reason is because the oil industry is a powerful force that has successfully prevented totally electric cars from being introduced.  If reliable and affordable electric cars were available, oil would become worthless overnight.   Grains would be used for food and not for burning in cars.  And people would still have a more abundant supply of food.   Not to mention there would probably be no war in the Middle East.
