Every damn day. Even when you finish reading this sentence, a few kids just died from hunger. Makes me sick in the stomach(srs).

Why do the 1% get to buy super expensive CRAP, while the very poor die of hunger?

It's more a problem of getting the food to the people. There is plenty of food to go around, it's just usually tribal conflicts result in one group not giving the other group the food.
Also, giving food aid causes other problems (in that locals will take the free food and thus means local farmers don't get paid){Misc Fisherman Crew}

Maybe it's because that 1% have worked there asses off and finally deserve to reward themselves?
Heck, swap the situation around, say the poor people in Africa were turned to billionaires while the rich in *****, USA, etc. became poor, do you think the situation would change? No.
We look after ourselves, that's just how we are.

Why do you think Gentrification exists? Why do you think they set up the projects? Why do you think they care?
There's a documentary on youtube where the guy who will inherit Johnsons and Johnsons says that RICH PEOPLE DONT CARE HAHA.
Literally, the guy is in a lamborghini cruising around homeless people and saying that he gives no fcks at all.
That's the world we live in kid.Blast me but they didn't finish, didn't diminish my powers now I'm back to be a motherphuckin menace.

I think we should have maximum income and change the way we view corporations. CEOs and corporations should be merged back together. No person should make an app like flappy bird and get set for the next 10 generations of their family. Obviously this wouldn't work with our current economic system, but we should serious consider heading this way before a bottle of water cost $50 that was sucked from your own roof.
I'm out of the house working out and improving my life style. In no way, shape or form will I compete, but it is better than sitting playing WoW eating McDonalds. Mad respect to others who decided to positively change their life.

Some of these really big rich guy's made their money as Crooks back in 1900's so there is a huge stigma associated with their wealth even if it totally legit today.
They don't want to give people money.
They play tennis with their rich friends and that's all that matters to them.Blast me but they didn't finish, didn't diminish my powers now I'm back to be a motherphuckin menace.

Just like when I fell on hard times, I didn't expect anyone to take care of me. I didn't even go on welfare. That's the same attitude now that "I made it." I don't expect anyone coming for a handout. I donate to food drives, my time to soup kitchens and donate money to disease research. If I'm not doing enough, look in the mirror before throwing stones. And I am far from ****ing rich. It's not my responsibility but I personally enjoy helping when I can. No one should be forced or even given **** for not giving to others.
The VAST majority of the truly rich got that way from work. And they don't just sit around doing nothing. Most still have very active business lives, which again, is why they are where they are.

Yep. The rich really screw those poor people who don't have jobs and do not contribute anything to society.
The real victims are the middle class.
No, in a perfect society the strong would drive off the weak. Why carry dead weight? The Spartans were strong because they did not allow babies with birth defects to live. According to what a friend of mine from Germany said not many people in Germany suffer from genetic defects because of what occurred during WWII. Am I saying that these things are better? No, but the downfall of many society is taking away the incentive to work hard. Look how well Socialism worked in Russia(strong giving to weak).
I think it is more important for the strong to provide the means for other people to also become strong by paying fair wages to people who are willing to work hard.337 crew

OP I hope you are selling your house, your car, the computer you posted this on, and are donating all of your money, clothes, and assets to those less fortunate than you.
Otherwise you are simply being hypocritical. Stop telling others what to do with their property and do your own part."Wherever there's a ******* posting walls of text, I'll be there. Wherever there's a juicy post lost in a multi-page thread, I'll be there. And when the miscers cry out for cliffs, charge their neg cannons, and wonder if the thread is worth reading, why, I'll be there" - NateTheGood
