A handful of multinational companies have managed to control the “heart” of the food we put on our table everyday: The very seed and therefore, global agricultural production. Brokers in the developed world gamble with food, raising and lowering prices, playing with the fundamental right of millions of people to food.
Meanwhile, almost a billion people on this planet are undernourished and 25,000 die of hunger each day.
Can it be that the Earth can no longer feed its population? The evidence proves otherwise! The food crisis, as it will go down in history, is occurring at a time when the planet is producing more food than ever.
“Dying in abundance” unfolds the absurdity before our eyes, the interconnections of a system in which, while there is enough food, it is so expensive that the poor cannot afford it.

Food has become a commodity speculated on at the global casino, while the numbers of people suffering from hunger and lack is rising with the minute. This number is interdependent on the price movements. Now - what makes the prices move?
Polarization is the method and Polarity the framework within which all energy movements take place.
A speculator at the Grain Stock Market explains that he is not only trading existing crops, but mostly actually promises. “You can make the promise to buy at a certain price at a certain time, you can cancel that promise by selling that same contract back into the market. And that’s what happens with most contracts: they’re never actually delivered upon, they’re traded back and forth and they cancel each-other out.” He smiles at the ‘intelligence’ of this game and doesn't question the consequences for anyone or anything else but the market itself.
The law of balance is in application in this global casino, a false balance however, as it is bound to the laws of Polarity, playing out between the highs & lows determined by the Haves while the Have-Nots are merely the part of the equation that allows for profit – nothing more, nothing less.
Out of all profit made at the Chicago Grain Stock Market through buying and selling Food, only 4% is actually going to farmers. “We are transferring risk. You can buy the risk from those that don’t want it like farmers, and sell it to people like myself, speculators” that can make money out of risk if they are right about the movement of prices to a certain time.
What this shows is that an alternate dimension of the food market exists that works like a casino, where apparently weather and other influences are being controlled through contracts and locked prices to projected periods of time, when at the same time the actuality of food production, the people producing it and the people required to be fed and sustain themselves are not being considered.
In other words, a separation exists between actual and projected reality of the food market, whereby the actual physical reality is disregarded for the sake a profit, a profit that is made by abusing and exploiting the physical reality through an alternate projected reality ruled by greed and the power of money.
Nobody considers that the power of money is dependent on the existence of crops and products to trade.
Nobody wants to take responsibility for food prices. Speculators speak of food price movements as if the prices move on their own. It is however the ill will of the alternate mind reality of a profit fixated human that moves the prices to insane effects, because in a casino based on scarcity of product, for someone to win big, another must lose big.
The fact that real lives of real actual beings are at stake through this monopoly game of big spoilt brats seems to have lost its seat at the games.
Since 2006 and with the subprime and other crises, the Chicago Grain Stock Market suddenly sighted speculators of the biggest of players, who very quickly catapulted the prices to sky levels.
Agriculture no longer serves the earth, no longer serves the people – it serves money and the speculators at the global markets – the world, a giant casino, forever hungry, never satisfied, an infinite loop of evil.
