David Beasley noted the headline was misleading. In response to E. Musk's original offer, and the news headlines: quote In response, Beasley said his comments were mischaracterized. In fact, $6 billion would not solve world hunger, he said. "Headline not accurate," Beasley responded. "$6B will not solve world hunger, but it WILL prevent geopolitical instability, mass migration and save 42 million people on the brink of starvation. An unprecedented crisis and a perfect storm due to Covid/conflict/climate crises." Musk responded by reaffirming his commitment to transparency. "Please publish your current & proposed spending in detail so people can see exactly where money goes," Musk said. "Sunlight is a wonderful thing." sourmash NOV 02, 09:49 AM The real story that isn't being talked about here is Musk tweeting a response of a past news break of how UN projects led to children as young as 9 years old having to perform oral sex on workers to receive food aid. randye NOV 02, 06:39 PM
