Bush Administration Gains Support for New Approach on Food Aid - New York Times:

"As shipping and agribusiness executives, charitable workers, lobbyists and federal employees mingled at Morton’s steakhouse, Charles Worledge, who works for the Long Island-based Sealift Inc., a major shipper of American food to the hungry, offered an insight essential to understanding the politics of food aid.

“I thought this was a charity,” he explained during the party, for which another shipping company played host. 'It’s not. It’s a business.'"
