Giving free food to people unable to feed themselves just creates more hungry people.
If everyone involved were honest I think it could work. Other billionaires could step up too but the bigger it gets graft becomes unavoidable. If higher taxes could solve the worlds problems I’m sure everyone would agree to raise them. It’s as if we could put an end to wars and genocide.
and Musk knows this, and thus his bluff!
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.
What country did we send food to that the bad guys sold the food to buy more weapons?
