Global Food Crisis

Are “scare tactics” the only ones on guard against food shortages in the U.S.? Or are there other credible voices give warnings, we should at least be heard? If you are experiencing food shortages, what are the causes? The answers will surprise you.

First Made Man causes

As we all know the problems that we are on an impending food shortage, because we do not have enough food. Far from it. No, the real culprits of the politicians and greedy bankers – worldwide. For it is not only the U.S. but worldwide economies that rely on debt.

The problem? A society that prevent debt on consumption needs, and lots of it on the wheels from turning. For decades, consumers have been encouraged to borrow money and unprecedented levels – and they have. Simultaneously, the governments of the world have done the same. They created a bloated, inefficient bureaucracy after another, and mobilizes the future of its citizens work hard by saw you on buying spree than anything else, this world has ever known.

So what happens when the extension of credit comes to an abrupt halt, and begin the prices of our most important natural resources, out of control? A recipe for disaster. And the tragedy is that it can not happen. It was the government policy and international bankers, never seems to be causing enough.

Second The rising cost of oil

I do not think anyone of the fact that the U.S. economy revolves around the use of oil question. To date, the cost of crude oil over 104 dollars per barrel, and Brent Crude are is $ 115. And with the revolutions occurring in one country after another in the Middle East, many analysts say that prices have seen up to $ 147 on the record, the last time we were in constant prices up

For those who do not think it’s seriously just think the ripple effect in our economy, when prices rise to levels more or record. Remember to check to the American living room to see average pay is no longer the credit available (and who wants to use the credit for the basic needs that anyway?) Suddenly, with double pay for gasoline at the pump. Think of the cost of heating oil and commercial transportation such as airlines and buses. Now add that all petroleum-based products in use and I think you can see the problem. And that’s probably worse than you think.

Third Cost of food

Increases above from spiraling oil prices alone, food prices drives up. But you know what? You are already on the rise, and in a surprising pace. Exactly these facts:

14th February this year, said the United States today, the price of maize has doubled both in the past six months.
10th February, said Investors.com us the price of wheat has more than doubled
14th February this year said Daily.com The orange juice is doubled since 2009, and
as I write today, 9 March said the MailOnline us: “The UN Food and Agriculture index of food prices affected is the second in the last month, watches, others from peaks in 2008, seen when the prices were higher due to rising grain prices and tight supply unrest triggered driven.”

Most people consider U.S. TODAY Investors.com and the UN as credible sources, not just scaremongering.

Summary

In America we have been blessed with so many things for so long, it is difficult to assess the nature of the difficulties that come from us, the same can think outside the box. And if you connect to the political turmoil outside the control of food and oil, it is not at all difficult to believe that we are facing a severe shortage of food, if not global, and individually we are trying to pay the prices that can come .
