furthermore by underpopulation they probably mean "we'll have enough food to share with non-white people now"

@tiffany The problem is not lack of food, the problem is a crappy distribution system where the store prices are too high and the producer prices are too low. Producers have to sometimes throw away crops because the cost to transport and sell is higher than revenue.

@nerthos fair comment. I still believe it to be quite an ethnocentric comment but I did forget about that

@tiffany Take it from someone who lives in a granary country. Distribution systems are convulted and held in a vice grip by organizations like truckers' guilds (or whatever the english word for it is) that fight to keep it that way to keep their jobs, when replacing truck long dstance hauling with cargo trains and boats would extremely reduce costs. And that's just one of the issues. There's enough food for the current population, it's a matter of better dstribution of both food AND population. Population density is horribly distributed having areas with 35000 people per square kilometer and areas with one people each 10 kilometers or less.
