And what explicit numerated power in the US Constitution allows the US government to do that?

So that old-fashioned, outdated term "In our National Interest" no longer applies to anything? Sell to the highest bidder, even if it means starvation in the producing country? (I know we're not there yet, but it's a possible outcome.)

HINT: It’s not actually in our national interest to have the government pass a program like has been suggested. How about citizens do for themselves what they should do and the government do the things its explicitly charged to do? People can and do buy their own food you know.
