Life is not a fucking movie or video game. A lot of people would die. It would not be "like, totally awesome dude".

Ignore the edgelord. That's what I should have done.

Didn't say it would be awesome. It would really suck. Lots of people dead. Yep. But given the current status quo, lots of people are already dead. So is it the rate of death that bothers you?

Yes! What kind of stupid question is that?? Making things worse is bad.

It is a question that matters. Why is the current rate of death not already "worse"? We currently seem unable to halt it. It is already unbearable and horrible. And it won't stop after the election regardless of who wins. That sad truth is that those in power, those with money, simply don't care about it. It is already "worse." The president has less control over foreign aid than you believe.

....math?? 3 dead people is worse than 2 dead people, again I ask what kind of stupid question is that?
