The worst thing that could happen to Egypt
2012-07-22
h/t Gates of Vienna
The price of wheat on the active futures contract shot up to $943 a bushel from only $625 a bushel just a month ago, due to the drought in the US Midwest and other factors. That is a further blow to stability in Egypt, the world's largest wheat importer, dependent on foreign sources for half its caloric consumption. Egypt now imports 800,000 metric tons of wheat a year.

The government is considering doubling the price of bread
I'm beginning to understand why the Army allowed MB take the rule.
