+283 The money required to eradicate hunger for everyone in the entire world is estimated at $30 billion a year.A HUGE sum of money...about as much as the world spends on the military every 8 days...messed, amirite?

There are 925 million malnourished people in the world. This post implies that it would only cost $30 billion to feed all of them for a year. That's only $0.08 a day for each person. I'm thinking you would need more like $600 billion ($1.60 per day) to feed everyone for a year.

and if you did feed everyone, it would just increase population growth,which we really don't need.

As sad as that is, it's true.
