Still seems like a pretty low number to me. The U.S. military budget request this year was 1.5 trillion dollars. Thats unusually high, but even at previous levels of 700-800 billion a year, that's chump change to take out of the U.S. military budget yearly.
Now if we all actually cared about world hunger 93 billion annually is a pretty small price to pay.
