| − | In the late 1960s and early 1970s, intellectuals insisted that the world's population would grow larger than the food supply, resulting in mass starvation. Yet there are examples in both the Old and New Testaments of the food supply increasing to be more plentiful than expected. Indeed, by 2011 obesity was far more prevalent and harmful than hunger worldwide, and food production far exceeds the ability to consume even in impoverished nations like India. Hunger remains a problem only in places with leftist political systems which impede food distribution.
