Elon Musk, the richest person in the world, says he will sell $6 billion worth of Tesla stock and donate the proceeds to the United Nations’ food agency if it could show how the money would solve world hunger.
His statement came after U.N. World Food Programme Executive Director David Beasley challenged Musk, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and other billionaires in a CNN interview last week, calling on them to step up on “a one-time basis” to help end starvation.

and Musk knows this, and thus his bluff!
Local warlords and all that follow them should be made extinct.
Is their idea to give men fish, or teach men to fish?
I interned for a certain mission in Skid Row when I first started. As a Christian, I get it: help others. HOWEVER, I asked someone “within the church” how exactly are we helping others by giving them something, when there is no benefit to working for it?
They looked at me like I was the spawn of satan. I even reversed it “if I expect free food 3 times a day without working..why work?”. Again that look.
WTF makes him think they want the money for anything but hookers and blow??
Internationalist groups and activists were using pressure campaigns on the blacks in both countries and radicalized them. It's the equivalent of how the Dems radicalized blacks shortly after blacks won civil rights victories. None of what the blacks did in Africa was organic or self-created. It was purposefully done because globalists don't want to see Africans become self-sufficient.
Apartheid was a horrific but a necessary system to modernize Africans and teach them civility. The globalists hated that, so they weaponized the racial aspect of it to bring down both countries.
Hi.
Cheap energy, an abundant water supply and a free market produce food. In the desert (greenhouses) or the American plains. For the next hundred years.
Otherwise, you feed the world one meal a day. This year.
Imho.

Or scamming. It’s a corrupt outfit, so....
When do blacks take responsibility for their actions, instead of blaming white people?
I submit it will be never.
The smart black people will use the dumb ones to maintain a perpetual victimhood mentality.
Hold on there, is it fair to ask how your $6MM is going to be spent? I thought giving money to the UN was an article of faith.
I notice here in the US, a lot of those children “going to bed hungry every night” seem obese.
My takeaway from that chart: it looks like famine wasn’t a big problem until the commies began to take over countries starting in 1917.
Love it - put up or shut up, UN.
Man, the amount of DGAF in Elon is high.
“Elon Musk, the richest person in the world, says he will sell $6 billion worth of Tesla stock and donate the proceeds to the United Nations’ food agency if it could show how the money would solve world hunger.”
Nothing can “solve” world hunger. It is systemic.
They have said “”$6 billion to help 42 million people that are literally going to die if we don’t reach them ...”
Therefore it seems they should have to prove that $6B would help 42 million people from starving. Not an easy thing to do.
Just today.
They’re being manipulated. They don’t have the intelligence to understand that so that’s why they act that way accordingly.
At the risk of asking a dumb question; why wouldn’t they want Africa self-sufficient?
Elon Musk made about $6 billion in the final 30 minutes of trading today, and he made $22.6 billion for the whole day.
