not the guy your replying to but i think its unsustanable. yes insects may outnumber us a mil to one but you would devistate the ecosystem doing this, my guess thats likely the point. create a slow(?) domino effect that ripples out ending in select few having growing and general food production capabilitys. hard to talk some people to revolt if its against their food supply... this also has the effect of giving these people inordate power.
