The Food Crisis

The following links are stories from the media regarding what is going on with the world food supply.  Between high fuel costs, widespread drought, and the bees dying off....We are in trouble!  Here are some links to current stories regarding the crisis and rapidly rising grain prices:

Rice rationing on the west coast!

Asia Rice Shortage

Austrailian drought = no grains for us!

Food Crisis Grips the Globe!

Plant yer gardens folks! 

As soon as the current grain silos empty, we are in BIG trouble! 

Current price of ONE lemon in Batavia NY:  .99

After reading all of this, one has to wonder WHY our gov't has been busting the farm workers.  Are they trying to STARVE us??  Do they WANT us to have to import ALL of our food??  What happens then?  With oil marching (rather quickly) to at least $120 a barrel, it is going to cost a FORTUNE to import our food from other countries! 

Anyone else becoming as alarmed as me???
