I had an idea, maybe you can help me. What if the whole world agrees not to let anybody sell food, only let them buy it. That way, when you buy too much, you can only give it away, and if your hungry and you eat your roommates food, they can't try to make you pay for it.

Buy is the direct inverse of sell. You need to think this through a little more thoroughly.

Limiting the number of children per couple. Seems like the best way to avoid over population. May sound wrong to many people but the results could mean a whole lot of less suffering in the world.

World hunger is caused by too many people having children they can't afford. If people (in the third world) would stop having ridiculous sized families then they'd probably have enough money and food to go around.

this sounds like the question of a first year college student with two roomies who buy most of the food. No?

Stop globalization. Cancel genetically modified food. Leave people alone before farmers disappear.

A radical reduction in human births would end world hunger. Sounds hard, but it is quite logical.

Didn't Karl Marx think of something similar? From each, according to their ability; to each, according to their need. Communism?
