   This is stupid. It's a denial of reality. The   
   British exported food from Ireland. The Irish   
   people were the problem, not the lack of food.

   It was. There is no question here.   
      
   Just because the Irish people were relegated to   
   a potato diet didn't mean that Ireland lacked   
   the resources to feed it's own people. The British   
   considered Ireland their property and the Irish   
   as squatters. They still do.
