last night bbc news reported that thousands of children are still starving in niger, but the upcoming harvest will be followed by the world food program cutting aid to the general population so the economy can slowly get back on its feet.
the trouble with that is food prices are—according to the normally objective bbc—"insanely high."
farmers will benefit from the high prices even if aid is not cut.
but if it is cut, prices won't drop nearly fast enough to be affordable to folk who have nothing.
i assume the food program has economists advising it. if not, they should. if they do, those economists should think again.
