    Kanook Tlingit Nation

    August 2010

    According to a report published in April in The Economist 3.43 billion people live on less

    than $2.00 per day, and 2.29 billion have no access to Electricity, couple this with the fact that

    1.37 billion have no access to suitable drinking water.

    This report points out that in the United States of America we plant food to feed our livestock

    on 2.81mil square miles, while for fresh food for our consumption we use 75,882 sq miles now

    where they dug this number up is mystifying, other than the fact that the report is centered on

    demonstrating how wasteful our world society (especially the United States) has become and how

    as a whole we are ignoring the poor and destitute starving population around the world.

    I have read, over the past few days how the world has turned its back on Pakistan and in doing

    so are ignoring approximately 11.74% of their population who have been effected by the flooding

    that has left 20% of its land mass covered in water. Water that has become a breeding field for

    every disease known to mankind, plus a new one thrown in by the politicians called

    talibaneruptus that stands a good chance of becoming a global pandemic. Too bad DDT has been

    linked to causing cancer might have been a good idea to spray a few barrels around, its link to

    cancer was overshadowed by Agent Orange and its affective use in thinning the population in

    Vietnam a few decades back, but that is neither here or there.

    The on-the-spot-reporters decked out in their spotless white shirts and brand new running shoes

    are shaking their fingers at the world, some mentioning the fact that just maybe the fast breeding

    talibaneruptus superbug might be the reason the rest of the world could give a flying rip about

    Pakistan, and shake their heads and tell the cameraman that a majority (being careful not to

    mention a definitive number) of the population are humble, God-fearing members of this flooded

    society. Naturally it is known that any society when caught up in the middle of a disaster most

    always turn to God, and as for being humble nothing is more humbling than realizing that the 200

    foot evergreen crashing through the forest on its way to mother earth, is actually aimed at your

    head what a humbling experience!

    Never one to miss an opportunity to drop a few bucks and collect a few shekels in interest the

    World Bank is going to loan Pakistan $900mil, whereas some countries have pledged $460mil in

    aid towards the disaster. This total $1.36 billion amounts to $68 per person in the affected region,

    of which they might see $1.00 each with the rest to be divided between the NGOs and honest

    politicians it meets along the way. Humanity never misses the opportunity to capitalize on the

    disaster hoisted on its members from time-to-time, in the political world it is a right-of-passage

    to dip deep into the pockets of their constituents as they walk through them. These pariahs of

    society smile down at the upturned not-yet-adult faces, pat them on the heads, and like so many

    copies of Jesse Jackson climb into their limousines and ride off into the sunset, after all this is

    their job.

    It would be a big deal if the world went sideways in Alexander the Greats day when he roamed

    and rolled over the Pakistani landscape around 326BCE, today with an estimated world

    population of over 6.86 billion its even bigger, and when some educated prophet of doom tells us

    were upside down we wonder, when we get a chance too, if its true or is it just another instant

    message gracing our fast growing Internet.

    The fact finders lay on the table that over 980.4 million adults suffer from malnutrition along

    with a figure that shouts that one out of every three children suffers the same, this coupled to that

    in every 5-seconds somewhere on our planet a child leaves this earthly realm. These learned

    members of our society write that 1.37 billion people are left by the roadside when it comes to

    our society enjoying our growth in consumption, in other words 80% of the worlds population

    can look forward to having a good dinner each day, while 20% exist on what they ate yesterday.

    And even at that, 2.4 billion members do not have access to sufficient carbohydrates or protein in

    their diets thereby exposing them to disease and such other conditions such as talibaneruptus.

    Now, with the extreme weather our society has been experiencing in some countries, brokeritus

    and crooksamiss have surfaced in the rich nations of the world, two conditions that are proving to

    be immune to any applications of common sense in any quantity. Their appearance has caused

    mass hysteria in the land of blinking lights and information monitors, although there has been no

    recorded mass suicides noted, some experts predict new yachts on the horizon as this unchecked

    disease runs rampant as food prices across the world skyrocket, as the weather reduces the

    growing and production of grain. In the commodity markets across the planet music can once

    more be heard making its way through the massive concrete bunkers, tunes such as Happy Days

    are here again, while the Internet plays an important part in providing access to penny players

    betting their life savings on the disasters of the world and their effect on food availability.Politicians and their educated aids are predicting world food riots, thereby stirring the pot

    making the concern of such things as the Russians stopping the export of wheat for a few

    months, this in order to limit the rise in price in the mother-land, this move is not limiting the

    cost of wheat in Russia as planned, a fact that we all understood when the increasingly popular

    Putin announced the plan. Worldwide the brokeritus and crooksamiss crowd shouted up the price

    3/5

    of wheat by 8% immediately after Putin made his historical announcement. In Russia the price of

    buckwheat has risen some 35% on the wholesale market, whereas its sale has been restricted as

    they only have one region that produces it in any quantity the Altay! Where in other parts of

    their Empire many other crops have been destroyed due to their extended drought leaving an

    open gate for the wholesales to justify their price increase supply and demand doing it thing in

    the former socialist society of the motherland.

    Torrential rains in Brazil and Columbia have affected the harvest of Cocoa Beans, which is

    driving up the cost of a good line around the world, whereas in India and China extreme weather

    has cut back on the production of rice think! In China if each person only had 3 ounces of rice

    each day their demand would be 125.5 tons of rice per day, in India the same consumption

    translates into 111.08 tons per day, these two counties account for 36.77% of the planets

    population, and they both eat many boatloads of rice everyday.

    Examining the price of wheat lately we find that the price of a bushel of wheat has doubled,

    whereas today its running around $5.25, approximately $0.09 cents a pound of soft-wheat. This

    price increase say some experts will cause hunger mutinies in 3rd world countries, as overall

    increasing food prices will doom 100 million people to hunger, especially slamming countries

    such as Haiti, Mozambique, Senegal and Indonesia opening their doors to al-qaedaeruptus,

    some experts note that if this particular disease does not have a sudden influx of mulla

    enhancement it too will loose its effectiveness and suffer a loss of recruits some sit and wait to

    see the results. HAARP, can you read between the lines?

    The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) forecasted the production of

    wheat at some 676 million tons, whereas the latest weather related issues now put this production

    at 651 million tons but dont panic whereas the experts tell us that the world market of wheat is

    more stable now than it was during the food crisis in 2007-2008 being the person I am, I

    wasnt aware we had a food crisis during that time periodnews to me!

    Stuck in the middle of the experts analysis of food is a figure that screams out that 4.4% of the

    worlds population has a life expectancy of 60-years, pointing their wagging fingers at a poor diet

    bringing on various diseases hell it wasnt but 25 years ago that reaching 60-years-old was

    considered a milestone by more than 30% of the worlds population. Tagging along with theirstatement they point out the 5.5 million people in the rich capitalistic west have anemia, which

    further invokes the heavy wagging of the finger attached to an arm waving widely around.

    Now we reach the purpose of their article when they point out that only four-Americans, Bill

    Gates, Paul Allen, Warren Buffet and Larry Ellyson had a few years ago more money in their

  • 8/9/2019 What Did You Eat Today

    4/5

    back-pockets than the Gross National Product of 42 of the poorest nations, with a total population

    of 600 million empty stomachs and starving mouths.

    Things havent changed, I remember when I was still under the wing of my parents and that

    when I was making ready to leave the dinner-table before licking my plate clean, my maternal

    grandmother would tell me the children in Korea were starving in other words I would be

    doing a disservice in leaving a plate with food still on it, my reply one time earned me a beating

    to within one inch of my young life when I said, after digging a nickel out of my jeans, here

    send my leftovers to Korea.

    The now apparent socialist not quite making it in the capitalistic world authors tell me and you

    that in Europe alone $50 billion is spent on cigarettes, and over $105 billion on booze but wait,

    more colored news is thrown on the paper when they state that in the United States alone there is

    $8 billion a year spent on makeup now that I can believe, I have seen some members (male and

    female) of our society walking about that by themselves probably spent 10% of that each day.

    Wiping the tears from my chuckling eyes I then see why were so wrapped up in fighting a war in

    Afghanistan, whereas across the world $400 billion is pushed around for the purchase of drugs

    no wonder we have a drug war, there is a pile of change wrapped up in its distribution.

    They close their informative piece on starving children with bloated bellies but telling the

    reader that the United States budget for war is out of sight and that with just the amount spent in

    11-days, would feed and heal all the sick and starving children on the planet. They tell the

    readers that the United States spends $200 million in 3-hours in their role as the supreme

    aggressors and leaders of evil across the planets surface, decimating the innocent, letting the

    evil diseases of mankind such as diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, measles and polio run wild

    completing their swath leaving behind 4 million children dead per year. Yet they say nothing

    about talibaneruptus or al-gaedaeruptus two primary diseases that have spread like wildfire

    across the planet.

    Their closing lines show their raised hands and weeping voices as they ask the reader, how

    long until resistance arises against such aggression against the greatest of all principles of life?

    With a prompt of $300 million per hour, you and I know theyre not referring to China, India or

    even Israel but those evil doers living in the land of the free, with some hungry I admit, but anation that the rest of the world sees as saving the rest of the world what say I, get a grip

    were only 4.5% of the world population and right about now were walking through our own

    problems and Ive noticed I have seen no foreign methods of transport dropping tents, medicine

    or portable toilets downtown LA only leaflets screaming that this 4.5% previously hardworking

    individuals do more for mankind with a mention (in bold words) that the citizens of the United

  • 8/9/2019 What Did You Eat Today

    5/5

    States ought to be ashamed of themselves letting starving children struggle to make it from one

    day to the next again get a grip, this democratic country does more in one-hour for the

    starving children of the world than 75% of the rest of the world does in 365-days.

    Have a good day!
