    In our area we have salvage food stores, They receive truckloads of groceries that are close to expiration dates from wealthier areas and sell them at a discount

    Here's the thing:
    Isn't it time for all of us grownups to acknowledge the elephant in the room?
    If we are to survive it's time to address profit-driven economics, and the corporate driven governments who support, promote and protect the agenda of unbridled capitalism.

      I'm confused. The elephant in the room is what created the most powerful nation the world has ever seen (USA)? Have you forgotten what unbridled (hardly true anymore cause labor laws) capitalism has done to forward humanity?
      I guess in a religious standpoint (trollbait) you might say the devil wants to kill the will of the ambitious, which is easily done by ending capitalism. If you are not religious, ending capitalism makes you a moron. Such is life, kill a commie for your mommy and get off of capitalist RUclips ran by a capitalist company Google stationed in a capitalist country United States. Otherwise you're just a hypocrite. Sell your computer with an American OS on it too. Sorry, give it to the poor.

      What exactly are you rushing to defend?
      That a full third of the food grown is wasted for no other reason than to assure a steady flow of profit?
      Is that praiseworthy?
      To which labor laws do you refer? The ones that allow first world transnational corporations to relocate production to third world economies, where what is essentially slave labor can be exploited?
      I'm not sure I understand your statement "If you are not religious, ending capitalism makes you a moron."
      It would follow then that if you are religious, ending capitalism makes you a genius.
      Is that really what you mean to say?
      You seem to to be saying that being anti-capitalist automatically makes me a communist. It is perfectly sensible to be against capitalism as practiced today without being a communist.
      Communism is a failed theory of social evolution as filtered through the lens of economic theory. One of it's chief tenants is the nationalization of production, removing ownership from private hands.
      Can you name one, just one, transnational corporation that has been nationalized by the US?
      On the other hand, there is a daily onslaught of proof that the interests of privately owned corporations wield abundant power in the formulation of US legislation and policy.
      Benito Mussolini is quoted as having said: "Fascism ought more appropriately be called Corporatism, for it is the union of corporate and state power."
      And finally, there is nothing hypocritical in using tools that have been developed by capitalism in order to point out that the current course is reckless, dangerous and has lead us as a species to the brink of extinction.

      MarioDragon The most powerful nation the world has ever seen? LOL!!! You mean the most powerful few hundred people who gargle with the few hundred million miserable people living on anti depressants trying to make both ends meet? You are confused, indeed!

      Ben No
      Of course I'm simplifying.
      However, I am prepared to discuss macro-economics. Would you care to start with Adam Smith, or the Austrian school, or the Chicago school, or Von Mises, or Von Hayak, or Keynes?
      Every economic model is a theory. Nothing more, nothing less. Each presents it's own rules, and each one is a closed system, like a terrarium. As such, they are removed from the real world.
      Economies and politics are mutually parasitic, and mutually supportive. The idea that poverty homelessness and starvation are inevitable, like a natural phenomena, is one aspect of capitalism.
      It's naive, or simply ignorant, to claim that there never has been unbridled capitalism. One need only look around. The idea that economic growth (profit) can continue indefinitely is by definition unbridled.
      Any macro-economic model you care to defend allows for a certain growth, but after zero sum total has been met, that economy will eventually succumb to instability, recession, inflation.
      The fact is that I do know what I'm talking about, and I can say with certainty that the destruction of a full third of the worlds' food supply on a yearly basis is the result of capitalism as practiced today.
      It is unconscionable that humans are allowed to die from hunger for the simple reason that profit must be maintained.

      Lee Burkett I so hope that one day, somehow, the disgusting capitalists who see themselves as some type of gods are going to taste their own medicine. When you look at their complacent fat faces one can only start throwing up until there is nothing left in their system! While billions of people are trying to survive in any way they can, those devils worry if they will be able to reserve a VIP table at their favorite restaurant. It's crazy how people let this shit happen on a daily basis. It's crazy that we all work for them; follow their instructions; show them respect and veneration; get all excited when we meet them or when they walk by us, when all we should feel for them is disgust and pity. It's crazy that all rich people have fans and we make them feel like they are more than us. If we let this happen and agree to it, aren't we idiots enough to deserve what we are served? Sorry for diverting the conversation but I rarely find educated comments on RUclips and wanted to share my lovely feelings.

    Even local produce shops that aren't at the level of supermarkets, have large amounts of food waste. Instead of selling things at cheaper prices, they sell them for 2 to 3x the price and b/c people can't afford to buy food at those prices the produce rots and goes to waste. Everyday I pass by and see the workers dumping bins of spoiled produce. It would be smarter to sell at discounted prices, people would buy more and less would go to waste.
