LOL! Next time, I know who to call in for reinforcements with this argument....er, discussion!
Like where is the grain surplus or supply going to come from?
US has NO surplus corn - No surplus cheese - Oh, they do have some canola oil, and quite a few bales of cotton - what wheat they have is earmarked for foreign food aid.
Even if there is no economic crisis, there is a food crisis that is complicated by steady population growth -
Should I grow a long beard, wear a friars cloak put on sandals and carry a sign - 'The End is Near!'.
But my glass is really half FULL! 8~)
