Capitalism is cancer :(
Capitalism, which provides such an excess of food that we're throwing it out, is the problem? True, when the shelves are bare and no-one has food this won't be a problem anymore.
But it's not exactly a step forward is it?
I don't understand your meaning of your comment. Not having capitalism means bare shelves in the future? How?
You are completly right. It's not capitalism's fault that companies would rather destroy essentials to save a few bucks rather than give it to those who need them. No, obviously the poor people just need to stop being poor. That'll solve global hunger without cutting into the profits of those poor CEOs.
