Food crisis because indians and chinese are getting food to eat

According to condolezza rice the more important reasons of food crisis that should be investigated is the improvement in the diets of indians and chinese(really, or is it that more indians and chinese get to eat these days) . A less important factor would be USA and many other countries using food crops to create biofuel. More people getting food to eat is a good thing(and who would have thought we will have to defend such a statement). What needs to be stopped is the new universal policy of promoting conversion of food into biofuels and planting fuel worthy plants like jatropha in arable lands which produced food grains otherwise.

Seen in all its grim realities, old Tibet confirms the view I expressed in an earlier book, namely that culture is anything but neutral. Culture can operate as a legitimating cover for a host of grave injustices, benefiting a privileged portion of society at great cost to the rest. In theocratic feudal Tibet, ruling interests manipulated the traditional culture to fortify their own wealth and power. The theocracy equated rebellious thought and action with satanic influence. It propagated the general presumption of landlord superiority and peasant unworthiness. The rich were represented as deserving their good life, and the lowly poor as deserving their mean existence, all codified in teachings about the karmic residue of virtue and vice accumulated from past lives, presented as part of God’s will.
