Seaver - I totally agree. 100% That is exactly why I supported the removal of subsidies: if we can reduce American domestic surplus, we will dump less into the world market, undercut LDC ag growth less, thus avoiding many of those problems. Furthermore, since LDC economies will be doing better in general, and ag-based economies will be better able to feed its own people (not to mention imcreased real wages and buying power), U.S. foreign food aid will no longer be as necessary, and can be scaled back.
