Where were they starving? Corporate manufacture sites have less to do with the dietary concerns of the locals and more to do with the cheapest of wages combined with the stability of the government. Countries with starving people tend to be very unstable and unable to attract overseas investment along the lines of manufacturing.

This could get political soon.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I've been following Isaac Jang for a while. His prices are high now but will only get higher over time. Looking forward to seeing what he builds in the future too, other than the OM style.
