i mean, we have the solutions to a lot of problems already

traffic? public trains

hunger? just like, feed people

global warming? reduce fossil fuel usage and stop poisoning the oceans

homeless? literally so many empty homes, put people in them???

and we've had many smart people create step by step plans for all of these!

the thing is... i guess rich people want a solution that doesn't involve them paying for something that's good not just for them but for others? so all those plans fail at step 1 - have empathy
