Desalination is very expensive.

OKAY... the vast majority of milk, meat and eggs we eat are all produced in this country probably, so if we let it spoil and rot.... how does that help someone in Bangladesh or Kenya?

My daughter around age 8 told me how eating animals was cruel and mean, and keeping them in cages was bad, compared to being in the wild. I showed her Youtube videos of lions and hyenas hunting animals and killing them. I asked, is being taken care of in cages and then gently put down and eaten by people better or worse than living and dying like THAT!
She has stopped spouting vegan and vegetarian ideas picked up from friends, but did retain a preference for soy milk.

Thanks SeekAndFind.
Shifting crops grown for animal feed and biofuel to food for direct human consumption can feed an additional 4 billion people with existing cropland, a study says.
What's their FR nicks?

The clarion call here is ‘SEND MONEY TO AFRICA’ ...Yes Africa, where corruption is king and the UN feeds on guilty white kickbacks...

That is not a healthful diet for everyone.

I experimented with vegetarianism in the early 1990’s.

I gained forty pounds and got sicker and sicker until I finally gave up and went back to bacon and a low-carb diet.

Soy and wheat are poison for me, and so is high-carb eating.

Sometimes I think that the PTB are pushing these insane diets for the entire world so that everyone will get fat and diabetic.

Then O’blamaCare can refuse treatment to the fat diabetics and berate them for having “brought it upon themselves with poor eating habits.”

Agenda 21.
