I really should do an extremely long thread on this when I& #39;ve got more time, but the VERY short answer to this question is that society changes, and problems only get more complicated as time moves on. https://thecounter.org/norman-borlaug-man-who-tried-to-feed-the-world-pbs-green-revolution/?utm_source=The+Counter+Subscribers&utm_campaign=9f9c831498-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2020_04_16_05_32_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_75a28a0eaf-9f9c831498-511555597&fbclid=IwAR2VH6iBrw6yIN97UqpRdIHPTJxgJxxrxLoMvShgp4u2q8N_JF0D03RrUcI">https://thecounter.org/norman-bo...

The problems are new; more complicated.
