Only someone who has never owned a farm would think the grocery stores
will magically fill their shelves and feed you.

Do you understand where fertilizer comes from? Can you feed 4billion
people with 1800′s organic vegetable farming without animals? Do you
understand crop and animal rotation? Do you know that Mao tried to sit
in his omnipotent position of power and tell farmers how to produce food
and MILLIONS STARVED.

HOW’s Hugo doing with his food situation?
