The food problem has "clearly" been created by Americans, who are eating 50 percent more calories than the average person in India,

A billion people living in a third world nation. How many starve to death every year? Is this a fair comparison?

How much aid goes (government and private charity) to India every year? How much aid goes to the US?

Perhaps they need more farmers and fewer scab phone banks and software engineers working below the going rate for those jobs?
