Overpopulation.

There are over six billion people in the world.  Why are people so adament on saving as many human lives as possible?

That's bullshit!  We have the ability to make the world a better place for everyone!  We just won't because there's no profit in it.  I bet that an investor could stant to make millions if he say, started feeding McDonald's brand rice to the people of africa, improved their infrastructure and what not; he could win at capitalism.  But that's not what the greedy fatcats are about, is it?
