    Countries “without their own food supply” means areas where the human population is above a reasonable carrying capacity. If you start to supply those places with perishable goods from other places, the people there are dependent for their livelihood on the products of people from thise distant places. If those people are not remunerated with goods from the places they’re supplying, then this prospect just creates the opening for capitalism to (re-)emerge.
