There is no "food crisis." There is a functional and productivity crisis. Too many people are concentrated in urban centers, and the land is devoid of life. There must be a mass migration back to an agrarian culture, wherein more Americans may become empowered with functional knowledge and a capacity to produce basic wealth. The earth will yield her treasures when the people take their role as stewards of life seriously. Plant a garden and the life will come.

@HeatherRose2023 The bottom line is this, local production Trumps dependencies. Regardless of Trumps manifold success, it remains for wise men to see the future. The strength of a people is wholly dependent upon their creative & productive endeavors. Functional skills develop from doing, not a pursuit of convenience & dependencies.

@voiceofreason162 These are problems that require attention and remedy. There are sabotages being perpetrated to cripple productivity and funnel productive land into fewer hands. This cannot be permitted. The land has been degraded and the people removed through large scale, chemically dependent Corporate mono-cropping. See Report From Iron Mountain (1967), wherein it is recommended environment intentionally be degraded, ostensibly with an intention to create even further dependencies.

@voiceofreason162 American born economic philosopher Henry George rebuts the Malthusian Pretext on population. See Progress & Poverty, 1879. Many of the problems then, remain problems today.

@kimmieb2u An artificially contrived and induced state of entropy and chaos, is the real existential crisis of a production of basic wealth, namely food, shelter and clothing. This has largely been a result of an ideology of dependency, victimhood, resentment, entitlement, vindictiveness and a sabotage of the "evil other" at so many levels. Too often, what should be done is not, and what should not be done is done. We have been collapsed into a tyranny of convenience, by which human value is measured by consumption, rather than independent creative initiative. But then, a majority of the solutions that have been provided to solve some of the most difficult demands of the human condition, have been provided by those with a conceptual, creationist mentality. There is no solution in the reductionist ideology of dialectical materialism and what passes for "evolution."
