The food crisis cannot be solved as long as food is a commodity.

 Half the world is hungry because they are too poor to buy increasingly expensive food, while agro-business corporations rake in profits  -- a worsening crisis capitalism cannot solve.  Clayton Morgareidge reads an edited excerpt from a recent book, From Food Crisis to Food Sovereignty: The Challenge of Social Movements by Fred Magdoff and Brian Tokar.  This excerpt, published on Alternet, can be found here.
