An article I came across in the New York Times discussed the implications of rising food prices and the threat of mass hunger and political instability in developing countries. It's up to 1st world countries including the United States to take a stand in governmental policies and contribution to food aid initiatives to save millions of lives. At this point, it's not a charitable cause but a responsibility.
