    Not agrueing at all that those few should starve, but a container of grain costs 25ct/pound.

    Noone will die of hunger.

        Not if they get 20$/ day!

        And reduce your income to pay for it. Let’s see, 90% make under 20$/day now So you’ll be left with around 20$/day…

          Yeah, that’s not true. People who get paid more than $20 a day die of hunger.

          I have no idea why you think what applies to Ecuador is universal.

            Pricing is almost yh same in US$ all over the world if you consider buying in relative bulk (60$/sack of rice of 100pounds = PREMIUM RICE. 35$/SACK is normal.

            60-120 GRAMS PER DAY = 44 kg per YEAR = 1 sack of 35$ (or $60 if you feel fancy)

            That leaves 363 days x 20$ to pay for beans, veggies, some protein and A TV, MOTORBIKE AND BRICKS & CEMENTS & REBAR.

            If you give 20$/day to every FAMILY (not even person) in the world, all of them will have a DECENT CHANCE ON A DECENT LIVE including some luxury.

            But we/YOU/ prefer to give them $2 a day but (y)ourselves 20$/hour and our overlords 20.000$/second.

            YOU HAVE NO POINT NO PROOF NO EXPERIENCE NO ARGUMENT. JUST STOP REPLYING OR I’LL GO INTO MUCH MORE DETAIL

              Yeah, none of that is evidence. Those are your claims. I guess you were lying.

              Also, I wouldn’t pay anyone as little as $20 a day.

            Wtf??? You actually really said that? Dude noone dies of hunger (nor thirst) if they have more than one dollar PER FAMILY. look it up. Ask unicef.

            20$/day per person is enough to save for a NEW TV in 2 Months while buying sooooo much rice and beans your ENTIRE FAMILY will be overweight.

            DUDE FOR REAL? 20$/DAY IS GOOOOOODDDDD. AFTER PAYING THE TV THAT FAMILY WILL BUILD A HOUSE WITH 15$/DAY AND USE ONLY 5$ A DAY in food electric & water.

            Dude get out of Europe /us… Get real.

            A large part of Asia Africa and most of south America is MUCH poorer as Ecuador… Just in case

                You just yell without even saying where you think I supposedly made a mistake.

                You can’t see an in depth calculation and still just yell “mommy” like a dumb kid… I mean you obviously can and did, but that means noone will take you seriously

                    So why not pay ALL SEVEN TO TEN BILLION PEOPLE 20$/DAY before considering paying YOURSELF 20$/hour and your boss 20.000/second
