Fact check:
2% of @elonmusk's wealth is $6B
In 2020 the UN World Food Program (WFP) raised $8.4B. How come it didn't "solve world hunger"?

If WFP can describe on this Twitter thread exactly how $6B will solve world hunger, I will sell Tesla stock right now and do it.
If you’re such a genius why don’t you come up with the plan. And as for getting hung up on the marginal costs of a little wrong doing here and there maybe ask yourself how much that compares to the waste at your own company. I’m happy to help if you want to do this for real.

Marginal? Little? The Haiti earthquake of 2010 saw a staggering $22+ billion collected, yet the island only got a few million. Nearly all of it disappeared into pockets of others.

Do you not see that he is calling out the absurdity that 6 billion can solve world hunger? I would guess that over 50 percent of donations go into people’s pockets and not aid. Country club of the elite.

I don’t think his companies waste that much. But you have a great point! He could put his managerial and fund raising skills to work for the UN and the WFP? He wouldn’t even have to contribute 6 billion himself. He and his wealthy friends could do it with marginal expenses.

It’s laughable how you think that they are only taking a little bit of the money. I think they could’ve solved world hunger with all the money they have taken.

This has always been my sentiment. With all the money they've already taken in, what have they achieved? Before you ask for more show is your track record

I’m quite sure there are hundreds of thousands of people who have “solving world hunger” as their primary responsibility. The fact the experts haven’t solved it or come up with a plan when asked to be given all the money they need… proves what the real issue is. Them!
