At times it seems perverse that people indulge themselves in the most extravagant activities this planet has ever seen, wasting resources per person and day that could help thousands of people.
All while millions of humans go hungry and die from poverty. It’s about time this issue is discussed more publicly.
Don‘t get me wrong, I‘m no socialist whatsoever and have nothing against a decent lavish lifestyle. I just don‘t think the world needs more megayachts, shipping around the world to be near wherever the owner is, in case he/she might want to use it for a day or two. Or 15+ megamansions around the world per billionaire, stockpiled at all times with the most expensive and rare food money can buy.
At some point society has to think about a fair allocation of scarce resources.
