     @JRHorsting how can we feed a child for a year with $92?

     @webhat @JRHorsting I was thinking that too. Would love to see that breakdown.

     @webhat @JRHorsting I wonder how efficient it could be made if everyone was entitled to some basic essentials in the same way.

     @ChrisWere @webhat @JRHorsting the minimum wage in Bangladesh is $14.62 per month. Even if they spend half of it on food that's not even $92 per year.

     I'm not saying it checks out but $92 is a fortune in 3rd world countries.

     @ChrisWere @JRHorsting indeed it is a lot of money in some countries, and I know some can feed 1 child 1 meal for 25¢ each day. That's what a few of the school lunch programs are able to do it for. 1 meal for 25¢
