"In
Lima, Peru, relief food supplies are
delivered to householders by night in order to avoid the threat of hungry
mobs."
Sea level rise and global warming are both anthropogenic - caused by human
activity - and famine has historically been more the result of political
decisions than of crop failure. Today, American food producers and traders have
besieged the Commodities Futures Trading Commission which regulates US
commodity markets. According to capitalist theory, commodity markets and all
other free market institutions are essential components of the equitable
management of world trade, balancing supply and demand and performing a
function so disinterested that it can almost be considered a public service.
The father of capitalist theory, Adam Smith, thought otherwise. While he
extolled the essential fairness of the "invisible hand" he decried
the inherent greed and self interest to which most businessmen were prone.
According to Adam Smith:
"People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and
diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in
some contrivance to raise prices."   (The Wealth of Nations:
Vol. 1, Book 1, Chap 10)
