Countries that have mass starvation or mass hunger are plagued by corruption and war. North Koreans are not starving because south Korea is a capitalist country, but because it's ruled by a spoiled brat.

The image of a thriving society that's not starving. Please do the world a favour and lobotomize yourself so that at least you will say less stupid things than with frontal lobe.

You live in a different universe if you think homeless camps in Atlanta are comparable to famines in north Korea or Ethiopia.

The United States is the wealthiest country in the history of the world and yet somehow manages to have more people doing slave labor (incarcerations for minor nonviolent crimes), more children starving, more violent crime, and more homelessness than almost any other modernized western nation. That’s not the sign of a system that works, and it doesn’t work because despite being wealthy as a group, individually Americans are divided into haves and have nots. Those that have HAVE EVERYTHING and do ANYTHING to maintain the status quo by tricking a lot of the have nots, statistically have nots like you, into believing this is the natural order of the world.

You are not a serf, you are not a slave, you are a human being deserving of a reasonable quality of life and so are the other 99% of Americans that are deprived of a respectful life because 1% of the people suck away wealth and vitality like vampires.

You're right. The USA has plenty of wealth and resources and just chooses to let its people starve rather than helping them. Those other countries don't have that luxury.

You're attacking Africa now, wow, you must thrive on seeing other people suffer.
