Or it could be said we are supporting them.
The 20% who live in the higher econonic regions produce 80% of the world food
and other goods. A person who lives in a grass shack may not be using a lot,
but he isn't producing much either. Yes we could go back to that kind of a
world, if you want to be one of the 90% of the people who have to kill
themselves so the other 10% can survive off the land.
Let's get rid of all those oil guzzling combines and go back to scratching the
earth with a stick. The combine feeds 100,000 people, the guy with the stick
can hardly feed himself.
