    1. If they had, why isn’t the world completely fed? Surely if every other country donated half their GDP, then the world is solved.

    2. Developmental aid is not humanitarian aid. Maybe learn, instead of googling for facts that support your position, then trying to pass them off as your own ideas. Have you ever read a book?

    3. History has context, leave your bubble just for a second and try to be more than a parrot. I wish you could see the absurdity of mentioning China’s nation building efforts, then citing this article at me. You’re clearly a stooge. Congratulations.

      1. Because shit happens. Why isn’t everyone in the US fed? Half of your GDP should surely feed the people.
      2. I read in a book once that if you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach him to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.
      3. You’re a fucking idiot.

        1. Because saying that people need food doesn’t magically put it in their mouths. It’s nice that you believe a UN resolution would though.

        2. How would you split it? Just fuck the natural disaster victims, right?

        3. You’ve really proven your intellect with this one.

          1. we literally pay farmers to destroy food - enough food to feed every starving person in the country. we do so solely to prop up the ag lobby.

          the rest of your post makes no sense.
