Does This Make Any Sense ?

Right now, somewhere in the world someone is dying from starvation.

“The number of people affected by hunger has more than doubled in the past three years”, according to the United Nations, as “almost a million people are living in famine conditions, with starvation and death a daily reality.”

Based on this reality, what would be the common sense thing to do? Throughout the western world, if you are on the left politically, the obvious “common sense” thing to do is … drum roll, please! …  to decrease food production. If you do not believe me, consider the following.

From Issues & Insights ( 12/1/22):

Most by now have seen reports that Dutch officials are closing as many as 3,000 farms in the Netherlands, the world’s second-largest exporter of agricultural products by value even though it’s only slightly larger than Maryland, to comply with crackpot European Union carbon dioxide emissions rules. It’s possible that eventually more than 11,000 farms will be shut down, and 17,600 forced to sharply cut their livestock numbers.”

Hmmm! Does this make any sense?

“On our side of the Atlantic, the malefactors are also busy. Just the News is reporting that the Environmental Protection Agency is quietly quadrupling the regulatory cost of carbon emissions in a new war on fossil fuels, which is, of course, also a war on the food supply.

‘If you think about the fact that they would impose this damage factor, let’s say on farmers, because it applies to fertilizer,’ Louisiana Solicitor General Liz Murill said on the John Solomon Reports podcast. ‘Fertilizer emits nitrous oxide. So fertilizer is a big contributor. If every family farmer now is going to have to pay more to obtain fertilizer to fertilize crops that feed us, well, what’s that going to do to the price of food?’”

Hmmm! Does this make any sense?

So let me get this straight! A million people are living in famine and are dying of starvation, so “those that know best” are going to decrease the supply of food and thus make food more expensive and consequently less available to those who are already living in famine conditions. 

Does  this make any sense?

The motivation of leftists for this apparent conundrum all has to do with “global warming,” and its “disastrous” consequences. Perhaps their thinking goes something like this … “Since global warming will kill off many, many people, we might as well kill off those who are living in famine now. They are poorer and will most likely die anyway. So the end result in terms of deaths will be essentially the same, as deaths will occur either now or later. Furthermore if more die sooner, think of all the expired CO2 that will not be expired! In addition, we will no longer have to worry about the potential flooding in the more affluent areas of the world, like Nantucket.”

Liberals apparently think, “this makes sense to us!”
