Hey, lookie here! According to a new report from the Energy Department, the global demand for energy will rise dramatically over the next 20 years. Despite all the hoopla about biofuels and alternative energy the report says: “Fossil fuels are expected to continue to supply much of the energy used worldwide.”<\/p>\n

Of course, my friends! I\u2019ve been saying this for years. But for the gullible &ndash; who actually believe we can “conserve” our way out of high energy prices &ndash; I\u2019ve got a related item here about food.<\/p>\n

The head of the UN\u2019s food agency has issued a warning that food prices will remain high. He says the problems associated with high food costs won\u2019t be solved without increasing food production. So he is advocating that world leaders press to increase production.<\/p>\n

But now wait a minute! Why not apply the same remedy that the Messiah &ndash; Barack Obama &ndash; suggests for oil prices? Let\u2019s tax the food producers. They\u2019re making profit from selling food. Let\u2019s blame greedy food speculators for driving up the price of food.<\/p>\n

Then let\u2019s tell all the hungry parents around the world they should develop “alternative foods” and “renewable foods” like cows do, to feed their hungry kids. Chew your cud! <\/emphasize>And of course they should “conserve” the food they have. Eat a little less each day so we don\u2019t damage our pristine natural resources.<\/p>\n

Someday, those children will be grateful.<\/p>\n

Those that haven\u2019t starved to death.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a beautiful thing.<\/p>\n
