So many things, so fundamentally wrong.

#8 is particularly appalling.

How do we fix this? Where do we start?

    I think it was polaris_x or Idris who once said here the problem is with distribution.

    The other thing to perhaps keep in mind is that right now all this food (that is not properly being distributed) is able to be produced because we've had vast amounts of cheap energy in the form of oil. If peak oil is a reality, we might (I would say, likely) see that scenario change in the future. Kunstler talks a lot about this in The Long Emergency.
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Food, Inc. is a 2008 American documentary film directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Robert Kenner. The film examines corporate farming in the United States, concluding that agribusiness produces food that is unhealthy, in a way that is environmentally harmful and abusive of both animals and employees. The film is narrated by Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser.
