The contradiction between plentiful global food supplies and widespread malnutrition and hunger arises primarily from food being considered a commodity.
When it's profits at all costs, this is what you get - unchecked capitalism and mass inequality.
Yep. Just look at the bakery section of Walmart. Most of that gets thrown away, but it's more profitable to charge high prices and sell very little than to sell a lot at a lower price.
This is what we get for putting wealth on a pedestal and breeding for greed.
Not disagreeing that a lot is wasted, but that's just not true. It all gets donated unless it's unsalvageable, which is not very common.
Idk why the downvotes, I'm just correcting it with facts lol.
This is not unchecked capitalism, is capitalism working perfectly as intended and there's no other way.
What are you guys on??? People aren't going hungry in capitalist countries. If you checked were all the famines were happening last century and this century, it was not in capitalistic countries.
How do you explain the decrease in hunger over the last several decades? Did the profit motive just come up during the pandemic?
Not sure if you are posting in good faith or not, but a decrease in hunger does not mean there is no hunger in the world.

Really strange what-about-ism on your part. Kind of low effort.
