WIll Hunger Devastate the Earth in the 21st Century?

Hunger to devastate Earth in 21st century? - English pravda.ru:

"Who would have thought that in the 21st century the problem of hunger will be paramount on our planet? However, this is our reality. According to the UN, 1.2 billion people in the world are experiencing food shortages, and the scale of the tragedy is getting larger. The UN is trying to combat it by taking various measures, but so far with little success. Could someone be benefiting from global hunger?"

Is it True that '90% of Dairy Workers in Idaho Are Illegal?'

90% of State's Dairy Workers Illegal? - WND News

Excerpt:

"[US Rep. from Idaho] Labrador adds, 'There is no visa for them to be able to work here and nobody else will do those jobs.' WND reported in 2005 on an analysis that indicated those types of jobs actually may be open because of low wages caused by illegal immigration. The report by investment firm Bear Stearns showed that between four and six million U.S. jobs had shifted from the legal work force to the underground since 1990, 'as employers have systematically replaced American workers with lower wage illegal aliens.' ...Jim Gilchrist, the founder of the Minuteman Project, told WND when the recession hit in 2008 that America can no longer afford to operate under the assumption that only immigrants would be willing to do low-wage work. In hard times, many citizens will be looking for any job they can find."

I grew up on a dairy farm, and worked many years on dairy farms after I dropped out of high school. Some of the men (and women) I worked with were in the country illegally, but certainly not 90%. That never bothered men then. Most of the people I worked with were in this country for one reason - to work! And many sent much of their earnings to their family in Mexico and other central and Latin American countries.

In more recent years I've met people who were in this country for less noble reasons, but I have nothing but respect for the guys (and gals) I used to work with on the farms.
