Such a good article. The stats are truly staggering. (although I think the quoted military spending figure is far far understated !)
We seem to live in a world where spin and hype, with materialistic people programmed to behave in a self destructive, selfish way that is devoid of compassion and common sense. Who cares if your carrot has bend in it, or your banana does not. If you've prepared too much food, what about dropping some round to a neighbor or friend that isn't doing so well. And the point about giving "bad" food away for animal feed is also spot on.
Upvoted and resteemed.
Thank you @cattledog! Excellent points. I think most people in the west could learn to share a little bit more. I suppose there are the downsides of growing up in a culture of excess and living with so much abundance, like not realizing how truly blessed we are and how little people elsewhere are forced to live on...
I hope you have a wonderful day!
