I'm talking about starvation -- not fingerprinting. I couldn't have said it better than this...
"As a rule, issues that make life impossible must take precedence over problems that make life insecure. Survival, in other words, is a more basic issue than security is. It is a mockery of sorts to paint the horror of terrorism to those who are waging a losing battle against malnutrition, hunger and disease. Terrorism is a problem only to those who have a reasonable chance of survival. It could be the only problem to those who have everything laid up for them. To the rest, hunger is today the basic and chronic form of terror."
