Is there a need for a corporate conscience to drive and develop a cooperative and sustainable global food system that provides food security for all? Can, and will, shareholders form the core of the conscience? How?

The lower class would also lose their businesses. The United States and other corporate stores would go in and take over their area and the farmers and lower class wouldnt have anyone to sell to. The people feel as though they are helping the starving out, but in reality they are hurting them even more. The farmers and lower class people will have to change their occupation in order to live. The farmers of India have been moving into the cities and causing many people trouble. The higher class dislikes them because they feel as though they are taking over in population and the middle class dislike them because they are taking over all the jobs and living space.
