How does short-term food-aid work?
How can money solve a food shortage?
There’s a food crisis because the price of food has escalated, because there are more people wanting food than there is food available. When the price goes up only richer people can afford food, and the poorest people cannot, so demand and supply are equalized.
Of course that means poorest people starve, and so deserve aid. So somebody gives them money and now they can afford to pay the higher prices so demand exceeds supply again, so the prices go up again, and now some new ‘poorest’ people (one didn’t get aid) can’t afford the new higher prices, so they now are the ones who starve. So someone now gives them money, and then what?
