The market economy is not the best!
Valentina 2022-04-19 09:02:23
All this about food is terrifying, and it is the consequence of America's complete market economy. The theory of a complete market economy sounds reasonable, but in reality there are big problems. The complete marketization of the financial industry led to the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, which spread to the world economy. The complete marketization of the food industry has led to a crisis of food insecurity, which has caused us the embarrassment of having no safe food to eat. In a complete market economy society, how to get the most profit in the shortest time is the only problem that the seller is willing to consider. What's healthy and what's safe, it's best to have nothing to do with the seller after the thing is sold. Although the United States has detailed legal provisions and strong scientific theoretical research, driven by economic interests, the entire government, industry, and society are ignoring the continuous emergence of these unhealthy foods, which continue to damage human health. And even worse, these developed countries are sending these unhealthy lifestyles and unhealthy food products abroad, constantly fooling people in other countries. McDonald's, KFC, Coca-Cola and French fries, these foods that Americans know are junk are all over the world, earning hundreds of millions of dollars every year.

Troy Roush - Vice President, American Corn Growers Association: You have to understand that we farmers... we're gonna deliver to the marketplace what the marketplace demands. If you wanna buy $2 milk, you're going to get a factoryfarm in your backyard. It's that simple. People have got to start *demanding* good, wholesome food of us, and we'll deliver; I promise you. We're very ingenious people, we will deliver.

Michael Pollan: The idea that you would need to write a book telling people where their food came from is just a sign of how far removed we've become. It seems to me that we're entitled to know about our food: who owns it, how are they making it, can I have a look in the kitchen?
