And the coming disaster will be because so many 'investors' are buying the land to grow corn who know nothing about what they are doing......and none of it will be grown for food.  The food that may have been grown on that precious land before will not be grown at all.....unless one is a wise one like the folks on this group who grow their own. 
 
The folks in those lofts may go hungry....just as hungry as those in the slums. 
 
Already they are screaming in Mexico because there is a shortage of corn for tortillas. 
 
The price of everything is jumping so much of late.   I have been buying the same breakfast sausage for months months at $2 a pound.  Yesterday it jumped to $2.87!   Time to either become a vegetarian.....or start raising my own meat.  I do have chickens....but only for eggs.  Time to branch out.
