This kind of article always comes from people who are innumerate and so far distanced from any kind of business and economic savvy that they can't do simple math. Someone please get a spreadsheet and show the author and good earnest people commenting here the simple math error of their fantastic thinking:

- 1 Billion poor people on earth

- cost per day to feed each person: $10

- cost per day to feed all: $10BN

- annualized cost to feed all: $3,650 BN , or $3.65 Trillion

So perhaps Jeff Bezos could feed every starving person on earth for one day, and then throw up his arms and say "Uncle". Two days would be double difficult, and every day for a year is a mathematical impossibility. Actually it would be very hard for him to free up $10Bn and wire it to the red cross so they could go grocery shopping. And it's highly unlikely the money would turn into food without being plundered by corrupt officials, politicians and organized crime networks between our skyscrapers and the starving people.

As for the the $$3.65 Trillion annually, there isn't a human wealthy enough to attempt this, not even Vladimir Putin or Muhammad Bin Salman.

Furthermore, this kind of thinking serves no real purpose except to make poor people feel like victims and rich people look like villains. This helps nobody. It perpetuates poverty and self defeating beliefs.
