Hunger – The Driving Force for Change!
Some of us wonder what trigger–if any–will ultimately bring monumental change to the global socioeconomic landscape.
Egypt may be the place of pyramiding change by hunger .
Baring a world wide catastrophe such as collapse of the electric grid or a large scale natural disaster it is most probable food shortage or high cost will precipitate sufficient social unrest and upheaval that dramatic cultural change will result.
Some are saying recent societal collapse such as seen in Egypt this week are a direct result of racing food price inflation, The unsettling thing is the speed at which a situation can turn from regular grumbling to wholesale overthrow of a regime or political structure, this I suppose represents the situationally aware component of this post. Given the right or should I say wrong set of conditions, a persons world can be turned upside down in the blink of an eye. Preparedness for societal collapse is more an attribute of mental cognizance than anything else, not being taken by surprise is key to personal ability to weather a socioeconomic storm.
Has the world of crass market speculators now put fast profit ahead of any concern and consideration for human suffering? If so, are elected representatives complicit in these manipulations? Are we witnessing one of the worst manifestations of NWO motivated eugenics ploys ever recorded.
Are you to be next?
A sobering observation
Beginning in late 2006, world food prices began rising. A year later, wheat price had gone up 80 percent, maize by 90 percent and rice by 320 percent. Food riots broke out in more than 30 countries, and 200 million people faced malnutrition and starvation. Suddenly, in the spring of 2008, food prices fell to previous levels, as if by magic. Jean Ziegler, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, has called this “a silent mass murder”, entirely due to “man-made actions.”
The thing I hear most after a geographic calamity is “Who would have thought this could happen?” Apparently very few since the question is raised so frequently.
It is worthy to note the catastrophic crop failures cited in the past 12 months, global in scale and regional in impact!
Extreme weather pushes food prices higher
Crops lost to flooding, drought crimp already-tight grain stocks
Among the economic havoc brought by this winter’s extreme weather, none has been more severe than the impact on the global food supply chain.
Is it possible that the Western World is skating on thin ice as far as food supply issue is concerned?
Stay tuned…
