As crops rot, millions go hungry in India
So let's summarize:  The Indian government spends billions of dollars (which are desperately needed for other purposes in a poor country like India) propping up the price of wheat.  This causes many farmers to switch from growing vegetables to wheat.  The drives up the price of vegetables, and would drive down the price of wheat, except for political reasons the Indian government would rather let the wheat rot than give it away cheaply.  As a result, many of the poor can't afford wheat, and the ones who can can't afford anything but wheat, leading to rampant malnutrition.Or even shorter:  India spends billions of dollars on a policy that does nothing except ensure they have a rate of child malnutrition almost twice that of sub-saharan Africa.tl;dr:  Socialism, lol.(Oh, and as Spodek pointed out, famines are caused by a lack of money, not food.  It's been known for DECADES that if you want to stop people starving, you need to give them cash, and cut barriers to trade.)
