Not agrueing at all that those few should starve, but a container of grain costs 25ct/pound.
Noone will die of hunger.

People literally die of hunger every day.

Not if they get 20$/ day!
And reduce your income to pay for it. Let’s see, 90% make under 20$/day now So you’ll be left with around 20$/day…

Yeah, that’s not true. People who get paid more than $20 a day die of hunger.
I have no idea why you think what applies to Ecuador is universal.

Pricing is almost yh same in US$ all over the world if you consider buying in relative bulk (60$/sack of rice of 100pounds = PREMIUM RICE. 35$/SACK is normal.
60-120 GRAMS PER DAY = 44 kg per YEAR = 1 sack of 35$ (or $60 if you feel fancy)
That leaves 363 days x 20$ to pay for beans, veggies, some protein and A TV, MOTORBIKE AND BRICKS & CEMENTS & REBAR.
If you give 20$/day to every FAMILY (not even person) in the world, all of them will have a DECENT CHANCE ON A DECENT LIVE including some luxury.
But we/YOU/ prefer to give them $2 a day but (y)ourselves 20$/hour and our overlords 20.000$/second.
YOU HAVE NO POINT NO PROOF NO EXPERIENCE NO ARGUMENT. JUST STOP REPLYING OR I’LL GO INTO MUCH MORE DETAIL

Wtf??? You actually really said that? Dude noone dies of hunger (nor thirst) if they have more than one dollar PER FAMILY. look it up. Ask unicef.
20$/day per person is enough to save for a NEW TV in 2 Months while buying sooooo much rice and beans your ENTIRE FAMILY will be overweight.
DUDE FOR REAL? 20$/DAY IS GOOOOOODDDDD. AFTER PAYING THE TV THAT FAMILY WILL BUILD A HOUSE WITH 15$/DAY AND USE ONLY 5$ A DAY in food electric & water.
Dude get out of Europe /us… Get real.
A large part of Asia Africa and most of south America is MUCH poorer as Ecuador… Just in case
