For the same reason Soviet Russia did for many years ; despotice centralized mis-management of people and resources.How hard would you work to grow food if you knew it was all going to be taken away?Communism never works;never has,never will.The lazy will do nothing ,and eventually the productive people tire of carrying the load.

Has Obama even made a statement on this?

Right now his biggest worry is trying to put up a front to the peasants that he is a churchgoer.

Colin Freeman, Sunday Telegraph on CNN:
No move to add armed guards on sailing vessels.
Americans would favor ... insurance and costs a problem ... and a pirate could get killed. (paraphrasing)

Let’s start doing the same thing with illegals!

“No we don’t, and the head of the ship line emphasized, the crews are not armed either.”
That’s insanity!

The MSM is getting into a frenzy, its inconceivable that unarmed people resisted, fought back and can win!
Insanity indeed.

Did anyone else just hear the FOX News (radio) report that “. . .the ship is carrying emergency food aid to Kenya?”
Speechless.
To: Kansas58
"And with Odinga, the Marxist “cousin” of Obama, in charge of Kenya, after a violent coup, why on EARTH does Kenya, with its Communist Utopia, NEED American food aid? lol "
Hey!! Odinga needs HIS piece of the pie. After all, family DOES count for something, you know.
