    Dinosaurs existed in the past. Their policies resulted in no shelter from asteroids.

    Wat.

    Using your own rhetoric I could argue that the United States had famines in the past so therefore it will have them again.

    Hah.

    You could, if there was a history of famines in America’s past. The closest we really got was the dust bowl, and that was never really a famine.

    Of course, the possibility is always open with global warming becoming a thing that we could experience some form of famine in the future. However, when it happens it’s almost certainly going to be because of global warming cannot because of asinine communist economic decision making that dis encourages people from producing any sort of surplus by imposing state quotas on them.

    Forget that hunger and famine only exists in the now because we let it to justify capitalism

    In the world? Hunger and famine largely exists because people live in regions with really corrupt governments and no way to produce food locally, it’s geopolitical more than economic and there really is no fixing it.

    In the United States?

    You guys have to use a chart that shows statistics on food insecurity instead of actual lack of access to food because lots of food programs exist and lots of people actually are able to get meals even when they are poor. Actual starvation is very rare in the United States, thanks to things like the snap programs.

    The United States has problems to fix, but we seriously have a bigger epidemic of obesity among the poor than starvation.

      Wat.

      It’s really not hard to understand you’re not as prophetic as you think you are.

      Gee I wonder what economic system is causing global warming.

      The context was in the US. Why shift the goal post to where you can blame something other than the American oligarchy.

      Who is “you guys” you even say yourself that obesity is a problem and obesity is a result of food deserts and terrible food programs in the US that stem from subsidized corn.

      You’re either trolling or unwilling to actually communicate on these topics at this point.

        Oh yes, the Soviet Union, wonderful bastion of green technology and environment.

        You blame capitalism for shit that would be happening and would be even worse under other systems. The status quo is Not the fault of capitalism and you can’t simply blame the status quo on capitalism without showing that some new system would actually perform better.

        Historically, non-capitalist systems are less efficient and pollute more.

        Why shift the goal post

        Yes, was shifting goalpost by responding to the two possible interpretations of your comment.

        you even say yourself that obesity is a problem and obesity is a result of food deserts and terrible food programs in the US that stem from subsidized corn.

        Yes.

        This isn’t… What do you think you’re making a point here for? We should end subsidies on corn in the United States and allow the market to make that decision of what to produce.

        That would be more capitalism.

        You’re either trolling or unwilling to actually communicate on these topics at this point.

        And you’re engaging in the age old internet tradition of accusing everyone who disagrees with you as a troll.
