Why, then, are there still people who are starving? Well....stunted question. How does the "world" doesn't "produce it", people do. And to give you a rough answer (to a rough question): Logistics. Other than that, Slinger will help you with all the wrong answers. He ate a helping of "Intellectually Elite Loops" this morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriftBusta Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Don't care, there are many things in this world that aren't fair, logical or right. But I am having an awful hankering for a nice steak off the grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Jimmy Snacks Posted May 21, 2017 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 21, 2017 In all fairness international aid groups have tired to feed starving people the world over....Africa for example....pretty tough when they are constantly embroiled in tribal warfare and competing warlords steal everything.

Somalia comes to mind. Great post. Yes, this isn't capitalism that is starving the world....America and others send billions of food and supplies to impoverished nations for aid. How it gets fucked up from there is why these countries are fucked up in the first place. I get the argument against capitalism, I just know it's not the rood of all evils. Men are.

But capitalism doesn't absolutely corrupt in itself. And this is where Slinger's "greed" argument comes into play. Althought he still won't understand why.
