Do you need Arthur T. Benjamin to calculate this? My question is we're buying explicit porn for zillions of dollars, aren't we? And, there're zillions of people dying because of starvation etcetera. So you still think I'm a moron, retard and crazy? A despicable pariah? This defies logic.

Yemen food survey finds majority in 'dire' crisis, famine a danger
Yemen’s war and the ensuing economic collapse has left 15.9 million people, 53 percent of the population, facing “severe acute food insecurity” and famine was a danger if immediate action was not taken, a survey said on Saturday.

Some 85,000 children may have already died here in Yemen, and 12 million more people may be on the brink of starvation, casualties in part of the three-year-old American-backed Saudi war in Yemen. United Nations officials and aid experts warn that this could become the worst famine the world has seen in a generation.
“The risk of a major catastrophe is very high,” Mark Lowcock, the United Nations humanitarian chief, told me. “In the worst case, what we have in Yemen now has the potential to be worse than anything any professional in this field has seen during their working lives.”
