David, I don't remember if I posted this, but I think the article below is a great example of how the rest of the world is going to view us. "There will always be someone richer than you, and there will always be someone poorer than you." - Tenchusatsu Indians Find U.S. at Fault in Food Cost nytimes.com NEW DELHI — Instead of blaming India and other developing nations for the rise in food prices, Americans should rethink their energy policy — and go on a diet. ... For instance, Pradeep S. Mehta, secretary general of the center for international trade, economics and the environment of CUTS International, an independent research institute based here, said that if Americans slimmed down to the weight of middle-class Indians, “many hungry people in sub-Saharan Africa would find food on their plates.” He added, archly, that the money spent in the United States on liposuction to get rid of fat from excess consumption could be funneled to feed famine victims.
