text: why has the problem of hunger in the world not been solved yet? given all the technology and richess we have here on earth. fact is there is more than enough food produced on the planet to feed everyone. in the untied states alone we produce 3 times the amount need to feed our people, yet there is still starvation in this country.  the only answer to why is politics. one side says that its wrong to just give way food, that the poor must work for it, the government has no buisness funding programs.  on a global scale it is much more complicated. and population is not the reason it can not be solved. major reasons include.  *unstable governments in the poorest nations. waring nations. *lack of prioritization of the problem by stable rich nations. *lack of funding to distrubute food, lack of storage facilities. *lack of evironmental regulations..(rivers and oceans, ect ect)  but if you want the simplest answer...is that mankind is flawed. they nation before humanity, they see borders before need. they say there is no solution so they do not try. is there a soultion to that....i am not sure.
