  1. Brazil's corn production is half of China's, a third of the US's. (Around 3:05.) That's not really "right behind." It's "in third place, at half of China's." Just for laughs, Brazil's corn production was created by Henry Kissinger in 1972 when he tried to push Mitsubishi Shoji around. MItsubishi had no choice in the short run -- and every choice, including specifically Brazil, in the long. Kissinger is a loud-mouth about his short-term wins, strangely quiet about his frequent long-term disasters. E.g. Both the US and Vietnam lost more people killed under Kissingers, and Nixon's, totally lunatic, fake peace negotiations than they had lost in the previous generations of deliberate, careful, killing under Eisenhower, Kennedy, and then Johnson who got the undeserved blame. Kissinger got an utterly undeserved Nobel Peace Prize; in a just world he would have been sent to The Hague in handcuffs.
