There are those unintended consequences again - From the NYT: "As Prices Soar, U.S. Food Aid Buys Less" - "Soaring food prices, driven in part by demand for ethanol made from corn, have helped slash the amount of food aid the government buys to its lowest level in a decade, possibly resulting in more hungry people around the world this year." I blame Al Gore.
