Food crisis could defeat Millennium Goals

Reuters AlertNet – AU says food crisis could defeat Millennium Goals.

The goal was to reduce by half the number of people living on less that a dollar a day.  $1.00.

Its estimated that there are 100 million people being forced back into poverty by the sharp increase in food prices.  The global credit crisis is also giving grief.

Wouldn’t it be great if we just shared the money around  a little better, instead of propping up a monetary system that encourages to the rich to get richer by selling stuff to the poor.

It doesn’t sound that difficult to me.
