Not everyone on this planet is poor. I don’t need that money. But maybe roughly 2 billion people do. And “not even a thousand dollars” is two years’ salary. In this case we’re talking about a quarter of the world’s population, so you “not even a thousand dollars” becomes “not even four thousand dollars”.
And that means: “Not even the salary for 8 years. Possibly only 5 years!”
I mean, the money is enough to completely eradicate poverty from this planet. That’s all that really matters.


Apparently about 300 billion per year is what would be needed for ending extreme poverty.
I’d say we should.
