You're discussing the troubles with humanitarian aid, which are also very real.
I was commenting on why food doesn't get to those places as a matter of routine business decisions. In many cases, they actually grow the shit but can't afford to buy it. Not because they have no money, but because someone else has more money. Not because it would be sold at a loss with respect to the cost to produce, but a loss with respect to their expected retail elsewhere.
Oddly enough, there's a problem that would go away in our post tech world.
