Well
you're clearly a very good and virtuous person and that much better than most of the people who regularly post here.

But you really have misunderstood this website if you thought for a second that your original post was going to achieve anything other than replies in the style posted so far.

How many governments and corporations do you think are reading B3ta and going "shit, we really are bastards aren't we, lets stop right now".

So while your post may be both entirely correct and demonstrate quite a laudable attitude to the problems that many people in the world face, posting it here and then spending your time arguing against the amusing responses over whether you can "die of poverty" or not seems really daft.

Also, I wouldn't bother getting involved in an argument with musuko over anything, he's demonstrated on several occasions that he's a pillock.

yes
but b3ta is mostly user generated content. i am a user.

don't worry i have a lot of free time (i can only stand so much burmese music) and i find it quite entertaining to respond to the idiots.

@geordie
Thanks. You're quite a charmer yourself, I've noticed.
