Growing up in the southern US, I remember as a kid, seeing chunks of kaolin for sale in grocery stores and knowing people who would eat it. But it wasn't the only thing they ate. When a people are reduced to eating only dirt, something is very wrong. We will use our might to "bring democracy" to a people (who happen to have a lot of oil) and let this happen off our own shores. What does that really say about us?

I realize this article has been here a couple of months, but what can I say? I just had to add a comment.
I agree with you zenpiilgrim, our government is in no way concerned about people, we all know by now it is about power and oil.
The last few days I have been hearing more about the Global Food Crisis; one of the most despicable topics is the fact that starving people are reduced to eating dirt. And...they have to buy this dirt? plz....
I cannot believe that in this world we have people who are that desperate.
I looked on the internet, and saw a good bit of information regarding this hunger problem and guess what i find? yep... GMO.
Here is a quote from Gobal Research site:
But it's even worse than that. Today, five agribusiness behemoths, with little fanfare and enormous government backing, plan big at our expense - to control the world's food supply by making it all genetically engineered with biofuels one part of a larger scheme.
By diverting crops for fuel, prices have exploded, and five "Ag biotech" giants are exploiting it - Monsanto, DuPont, Dow Agrisciences, Syngenta and Bayer CropScience AG. Their solution - make all crops GMO, tout it as a way to increase output and reduce costs, and claim it's the solution to today's soaring prices and world hunger.

I'm afraid we're going to see more of that around the globe as the food crisis worsens. Thanks to Bush, oil prices are spiking everywhere, rendering farmers around the world unable to grow food.

I had a nice salad for dinner, I had a fresh apple for a pm snack. I was peeling that apple and thought, gosh I was hungry and just take for granted this apple. I don't have much income, but still food is available even to someone who lives pretty frugal like I do.
That said, here we are spending what is it? trillions? on a war we have no business in, and yet unable to help these human problems around the globe.
I have been wondering, maybe they are spraying something in the sky to disable the human species to speak out and initiate real change.
I am bummed out right now, and don't want to sound negative, but we must do something different.
this dirt pie thing is horrid....
