RE: Solve the world’s problems with technology, would that be moral?
Guess it depends if you feel like there's actually a necessity for it or not. Like I said, we wouldn't have to do anything beyond what we already have. If the wealth was distributed amongst everyone, there's plenty of food and water for everyone. Shelter could be made. We already have the resources to have everyone living comfortably in my opinion.
Yes we do have enough in this world to take care of everyone; it’s sad that so many suffer needlessly. Though I would say that the better approach is to teach people to fish instead of giving them a fish. Economic development is the most effective poverty reduction tool of all time. It does need to be structured in a way that aims its benefits at local, everyday people. Many countries are doing this, so I am quite optimistic for the future in this area (ok mostly optimistic).
