Manfred Max-Neef: For decades we have been told that there are not enough resources to overcome poverty, yet there are more than enough resources to satisfy the wants of speculators. Seventeen trillion dollars divided by the 30 billion the FAO estimates as enough for overcoming world hunger, instead of saving private banks, could generate 566 years of a world without hunger. Would not a world without misery be a better world for everyone, even for the banks? What are we facing in our world today? https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote9442
