I find it really hard to believe $30 billion is all it would take to solve poverty world-wide.

I don't even see how $30 billion could solve poverty in the U.S. Think about it, if that was true, what the hell are we wasting all the this money on social services? Apparently all it would take is $30 billion. We spend almost a trillion a year in social services, and yet you think another $30 billion is all it would take to solve poverty?
