    Sorry that I ask questions instead of accepting whatever. Claiming that you just need to throw X money at such an extremely complex issue and then it will be solved world wide is just laughable. As if there are no bad actors etc. pp.

      Just asking questions about if poor people should have enough food to live or if that would make them breed too much, no fucked-up Malthusian undertones here, nossir

        That was never the point. The point is precisely that many poor people will NOT see the money/food/help just like all the times before now.

        I also assume that, even if they miraculously really all get it, you will have at least one boomer generation, so more people per area that need to be fed. You then need to immediately get education up and running. Things then need to be stable for decades to make the fertility rate drop. It is not a simple “costs X then solved forever worldwide” kind of thing. It is also not something we can somehow “force” on them, at least not by throwing money at the problem.
