Comment on I'm not asking to be rich.
JustMy2c@lemm.ee 1 year agoDude you can buy a LOT OF RICE AND BEANS AND VEGGIES LOADS OF EGGS & MORE protein. Things you want come AFTER each of 9.000.000.000 get the aforementioned (and basic shelter, basic clothing, etc). Before half the world doesn’t have that, you have no right to extras.
UNLESS YOU WORK HARD OR SMART FOR IT.
If you 'want"

You think you can afford rice and beans and veggies and loads of eggs and more protein on $20 a day? In the grocery store in the sky?

I live in Ecuador. I’m talking bulk from scratch, worldwide average.
MOST PPL IN THE WORLD LIVE ON MUCH LESS.

Most people in the world live horrible, impoverished lives.
Maybe you don’t want better than that for them. I do.

20$/day is NOT HORRIBLE if you don’t have debt and own home and decent clothes.
One part getting 20$/h and the other $2/day is the bad part, ergo today’s IRL world.

You would chose 100$/day for you and 2$/day for poor people, I know you would. Not everyone can get 20$/h
