Exactly, even if we can double the output of food production tomorrow, it's still not going to solve the hunger problem, even if we send all the food they need to places like N. Korea or countries in Africa, nothing much will change, other than the size of the pocketbook and warehouses of the dictators or warlords in charge, every one else is still gonna go hungry.

Unfortunately, human society is inherently unfair, while it's something we can certainly strive for, I don't see it as a realistically achievable goal.
