| 697409 | 2008-08-15 05:03:00 | I don't get it Food prices are soaring ! Commodity Prices are soaring ! Many people are starving Yet we are closing meat works all over the place. And we are looking at buying lambs from South America ! And the govmint plans to invest billions in food technology. It seems to me that people do not want or cannot afford to buy the food we make ! And if they do, then they have tariffs on it to protect their farmers. |
