add to cart   close window

One of the fundamental problems the U.S. Congress will have to face is concerned with the Americans' welfare and the welfare of the world. Some countries have not had enough to eat. Americans have had surpluses. Other countries have had surpluses. And people will not go hungry any more. This goes for the Americans' own domestic economy, and also for people in other lands throughout the world. Therefore, the U.S. Congress will have to face this in cooperation with other countries, first those in the Americans' own hemisphere and then beyond. Congress will have to provide a pool of so-called surpluses.
