Food Policy 1
Can we control the markets without ending up with total
control and rationing?  “Free” Trade?
We could use the money going into CAP, - about another
quarter to what we spend at cashouts. Call it a Common
Food Policy. Like the original, the political importance of
food would be the starting point. Only the concerns are
different and balance of force are changing.
Provide healthier food to people. With 1 billion now
fat/obese, we need healthier food. Spend money on
growing vegetables – especially locally produced veg, but
who receive virtually no subsidies. Yet everybody agrees
does us good.
Luckily these are also better for the environment..
