Yes. I agree. But I would like to add that we take only what we need and
that we do not stockpile except for situations such as over the winter.
One winter.
Corporations take for profit not for their needs. There is rotting wheat
and wool in the USA and Australia at times and the reasons are economic.
It is wasteful and immoral. Americans (Nth) make up 6% of the world pop
and use 40% of the worlds food. The poorest countries who make up 40% of
the world pop use only 5% of the worlds food (A bood on non-violence that
I was reading this morning). Food for thought?
Oooh, this waste and devastation makes me mad!!
