    Food insecurity is currently decreasing in China (source) while it’s increasing in Canada (source). So maybe there is a lesson on central planning and land distribution for us to learn.

      Canada’s not even on that Global Hunger Index. You cant take two different studies with two different methods of data collection and correlate them. Thats just bad science. And part of why China’s is continuing to do better is that they are increasingly participating in a world economy and selling to the west and more prosperous free market nations, which has raised the standard of living for the Chinese. Its because they are moving away from centralized control that the country is doing better.
