The WSJ had an article about the black farmers in Africa complaining about food aid. One quote was, “You can’t compete with free.”

RE: The WSJ had an article about the black farmers in Africa complaining about food aid. One quote was, “You can’t compete with free.”

The question is this — Are there enough Black farmers to provide food for the starving in Africa?

If the answer is ‘yes’ —

1) Are these food reaching the starving?

2) Do the starving have money to afford them?

If the answer is ‘no’.... what’s the alternative if you have surplus food in the Western world?

Can't compete with free... Great quote.

We're undermining productive members of these societies - while propping up their goons. It's insane.
