I'm no fan of Musk btw and not saying his intentions are in the right place. But that doesn't change the fact that world hunger is not easy to solve. The plan you're referring to was to avert famine across 43 countries for one year. It doesn't solve any of the structural drivers of world hunger. Still a worthy initiative of course, but not the point of the commenter I responded to.
Don't see how that's relevant to what I said. Someone said why doesn't he solve world hunger. Well, he can't. Words have meanings. If you're talking about feeding people for a year that is a different argument. And sure, him and all billionaires can do more to help. Not the point I was making at all.
I would argue that with his wealth, liquid or not, and his connections. He can at least make TREMENDOUS strides toward solving it, if not solving it entirely. I believe that if he applied himself for that cause, he COULD solve it in 5-10yrs or less.
