A "shithole country" isn't a poor country that can't feed its children. It's a rich country that won't feed its children.

    @PChoate@mas.to if there was a global vote on who the "Shithole Countries" were I know the USA would be in the top ten. And that's from American voters!

    @PChoate@mas.to well that's definitely the UK. A G7 country that is so shite, that it is included within a UNICEF Top 10 list of countries whose children are suffering from malnutrition!

  • @PChoate@mas.to Because they can't spend that money on feeding the children. That's the money a billionaire desperately needs to buy his fourteenth Trump-class mega-yacht.

    @PChoate@mas.to define rich though. Both Pakistan and India have nuclear weapons and India a space programme but many poor as well. Spending priorities in any country whether rich or poor need addressing especially when the person at the top enriches themselves at a cost to the poorest.

    @PChoate@mas.to And that, according to the collection of books known as the Bible, was the actual "sin of Sodom" that caused it to be destroyed with a hail of fire. It was the ancient sin of being inhospitable due to pride -- having enough and to spare for everyone's needs, but deliberately choosing to concentrate wealth by shutting out the poor, strangers, visitors, children and other vulnerable populations.
