    I disagree. I believe that billionaires control the world. It is their attitude that is pervasive throughout government that allows the hunger to continue. Not to mention the number of uber rich people in the various governments, riding around in limousines while their people starve.

    Also capitalism requires a large body of poor people to support it. Those cheap T-shirts aren’t made by highly paid labor. And who benefits most from capitalism?

    I can probably come up with numerous other connections between the ultra rich and the state of poverty.
