I worked in Afghanistan in 2011 and 2012. I'm still in touch with people there and they are absolutely desperate. People are dying already in droves. The way we let the country collapse is shameful. Our government is responsible. Joe Biden is responsible, as are all the executive branch leaders who presided over this failure for the last two decades.
Grocery Store Food Waste About 30 percent of food in American grocery stores is thrown away. 23 US retail stores generate about 16 billion pounds of food waste. Something is profoundly wrong in a world where trillions are spent on the vulgarities of a wasteful war machine. In Afghanistan we spent trillions to engage an enemy we previously had nurtured and grown to defeat the Russians only to later defeat us as well. In the meantime nothing changed but the number of people starving to death.
