We can see today what China is, and they’re really a competitor of ours to put it mildly. If I would have known the impact of what happened last year, would I have thought about it differently? I don’t look at myself as a public figure. I mean, look how children today who don’t have food have to go to school to get their best meal of the day. I mean, that’s sad when you think about it and all the privilege we have, and you see the wasted food that’s thrown out that we don’t use.
