    I can’t remember when or where I read this so please take it with a grain of salt; but most food shortages are caused by market speculation

      Islam forbids this kind of profiteering off food and stuff. I am an atheist, but the fact that stuff like this is mentioned in very old religions is telling for how far back this bullshit goes.
