26. Who the hell are you to talk about protecting the poor?

You stated in a previous discussion about the ethanol bust, and I quote: "The US needs to stop exporting corn".

Such an act would lead to the starvation of MILLIONS of poor people in less developed nations and likely even trigger government collapses and civil wars there.

You don't give a fuck about poor people, so drop the act.
