Why doesn't the Vatican solve world hunger?

>>3268897
Because suffering is good for the soul.

>>3268897
Mother Teresa said that poor people needed to stay in poverty and suffering to get to Heaven.

>>3268906
she also said condoms didn't protect against HIV

>>3268906
Mother Teresa was a monster.

>>3268910
They don't if you get HIV from a blood transfusion.

They spend a lot of it on the conservation of historical churches in Italy, and I presume elsewhere in Europe.

They also have an observatory, which is able to pursue somewhat more speculative fields of research, such as the search for alien life, cos they don't need to compete for grant money.

Also, they do make a damned good effort to feed the hungry.

>>3268897
Couldn't you say something similar about sharing the wealth of the world's Jewish population? They own, like, a pretty disproportionate share of the 1%.

Yeah sure, that's exactly what Africa and Asia needs, it's local producers to cease to exist and become entirely reliant on foreign aid, I foresee no problems at all

>Questions
Who would buy the Vatican?

Who would distribute this food?

How much food would each person get?

>Points
The Vatican legally isn't allowed to sell anything it owns. That would be considered a violation of the terms of the Lateran Agreement and the Italian government would then annex the Vatican.

Legally everything in the Vatican is considered to collectively belong to the world's Catholics and non-Catholic Europeans as well.

In the event of seizure by the Italian government, everything in the Vatican will carry a symbolic value of one euro. So, you'd get less like 500 billion dollars and more like 500 dollars.

The Vatican has been operating at a loss for about 300 years. Practically all of their wealth is in the form of art and property. The money they receive from donations is just about enough to keep the whole thing running.

The Catholic Church is easily the largest charitable organisation in the world. They run thousands of soup kitchens, orphanages, schools and hospitals all over the world.

The Vatican makes more money from Tourism every year than they'd get from a lump sum.

500 billion, which we've established is not the sum you would receive anyway, would buy around 151,975,683,891 pieces of bread, using the price of bread in New York as a reference. That's 253 pieces of bread for every person on the planet. That wouldn't even feed everyone in the world for a year.

>would buy around 151,975,683,891 pieces of bread, using the price of bread in New York as a reference. That's 253 pieces of bread for every person on the planet
Your numbers are a bit off there chum. It would buy everyone on the planet around 20 pieces of bread

So the plan is even fucking stupider. It wouldn't feed everyone on the planet for a month, let alone a year.

>>3268936
>anon in charge of math
it's barely twenty and a half pieces of bread per person. be less like a year and more like a month.

That's not alot of food. I easily eat more than that a day and I'm very thin.

>>3268976
There are about 2000 calories in a loaf of bread. That's barely enough for an adult woman and not enough for an adult man, not to mention it's not very nutritious.

you must buy a really small bread, I'm a glutton and I can't imagine eating even a plain loaf chased with water in a day.

>>3268955
Most people don't know that the majority of one's wealth is tied up in non-liquid assets.

>>3268986
>There are about 2000 calories in a loaf of bread. That's barely enough for an adult woman

t. ameriblob

>>3268976
So in a 800g loaf of bread you've got about 2120 calories

That's just about enough every day for a woman, but it's not enough for a man. This is assuming that they don't have any other source of food.

So the women would be fine for the 20 days they'd have, the men would lose weight albeit very slowly.

And then they'd all starve after 20 days anyway.

>>3268897

This is the view of all Christians. Which is why they have no business in governing.

500,000,000,000 / 2,000,000,000
= $250.00

Assuming you only feed the poorest 2billion people in the world that gives you a budget of about 250.00 a person.

which may feed someone for maybe a month or two in the worls poorest countries.

Throwing money at stuff isn't the solution, even though this Jewess may think so.

The problem isn't the food. There already is enough food in the world to feed everyone who needs it. I'm pretty sure the US could do it by itself given how much wasted food is dumped.

The problem is logistics. Okay, you have the magic number of food to feed everyone in need for a day. How do you get it to everyone in every corner of the world? Do preserve the food and send it off in cargo ships to every port in Africa, South Asia, and South America?

How many cargo ships is it going to take to feed everyone in Somalia for a day, a week, a month? How do you get that food from Somalia to Zambia and the Congo? How many trucks will you need? How many soldiers will you need to protect that cargo from local starving populations? Maybe Somalians don't want to give food to Ethiopians, so they take all the food for themselves. How much is the mission to convoy that food to Ethiopia going to cost?

Do ya get it? We're talking about hundreds of billions if not trillions of dollars in cost to distribute food across the world. It's much cheaper to just throw it in a dump.

This is the one of reasons Americans, who have a ton of excess food, don't feed every homeless person. The logistics cost too much.

>>3269300
in other words capitalism is the reason why people starve. if life didn't revolve around money we'd be able to do it.

>>3269011
charity is a bit more complicated than "buy the poor people food", and doing it like a retard can make things worse.

Well lets ignore the whole fact that the Vatican would never sell all of its holdings (rightfully so) and that it wouldn't work anyways (even without the Italian government interfering, tf how would the art market absorb all of this art for a reasonable price).

The much more interesting question is what would happen if the Vatican actually manages too sell all of its shit for a reasonable price with weird juedo-christian space magics.

In the book Le Camp des Saints the Vatican squanders its money pretty effortlessly for propping up third world agrarian budgets.

That honestly is pretty close to reality.

What would they do with 500 billion ?

Humanitarian aid budgets would swell for a decade or two. Big whoop. That shit isn't working.

Fucking crazy liberals. This retarded redistribution rhetoric is so dumb.

Giving a man a fish won't help him. You have to teach him. You'd just waste billions of dollars of food that is comething from somewhere, who actually knows. Those places and people would just be back to starving shortly afterwards anyway. There's a reason they're starving in the first place.

He has something better: the unity of the Holy Trinity.

Why would we want to feed everyone or end hunger? It's already a problem that we're sending too many goddamn aid to that godawful continent. What's the point or incentive of trying to make your own food or clothes if people are just giving food and clothes to your people. That's not even the half of it, another problem is those goddamn aid organisations don't give it directly to the villages or people but to some distributors who then proceeds to sell them for a 500% mark up.

At the state Africa is in, it cannot support its large population. A large scale famine would be beneficial to Africa. Like how a large scale disease was beneficial to Europe or how the world wars were beneficial to humanity. If we stop giving aid today, millions would starve, but the hundreds of millions left would find ways to solve their problem.

ignoring the stupidity of this statement and let's say magically 500 billions magically teleported in to world (and inflation won't actually rise because I say so), there is still no way Africa or the rest of the 3rd world to be put on his legs with those money.
The main reason is not a difference in money but in resource and industry: some poor countries simply can't sustain themselves or be rich, while other have theirs stolen from them by the world powers and big corporations.

>>3270007
I entirely agree that it's not enough money to solve world poverty, even before you get onto the issues about how throwing money at the problem doesn't magically solve it or whether the Vatican actually has that much in easily liquidatable assets.

However inflation doesn't even come into it, that's a trivial sum in terms of the world economy and it would be raised by the sale of assets rather than an increase in the money supply.

I think her opinion is wrong for a whole bunch of reasons, but this is a shit post.

a) it is hypocrite
b) she doesn't suggest the Vatican should sell everything
c) you have no idea what percentage of her money she gives to charity (and neither do I).
d) an appeal to hypocrisy isn't a valid argument i.e. the premise does not meet the conclusion, it wouldn't matter if Silverman was a billionaire spent every penny she earned on drugs and hookers and yachts it wouldn't make her point any better or worse.
