I have to thank the Jehovah's Witnesses for this article. It was in their May 07 Awake magazine.


The politics of hunger

To satisfy all the world’s sanitation and food requirements would cost only $13 billion, hardly as much as the people of the United States and the European Union spend each year on perfume.
