Ending hunger by 2030 would cost just $93 billion a year — less than one per cent of the $21.9 trillion spent on military budgets over the past decade, according to the UN World Food Programme (WFP).

    Excuse me for being skeptical, but I’ve been hearing about ending world hunger for 3 decades now, and if it’s as easy as moving only 1% of the military budget, then… I just feel like there’s more to this than media tells us on the surface level

      so your are suspicious the military industrial complex is not willing to part with billions to gift away?

      yeah, that sure is evidence they do not think ending world hunger is not feasible and not evidence of greed and corruption, no sir
