"Give me a tablet to stop my hunger"

This little kid goes to a pharmacy and asks them if they have a tablet that could stop his hunger. The kid comes from a very poor family and has no food to eat.
I shed a tear when I heard this.
In contrast to this I just read about a Member of Parliament here who owns wealth running into Rupees thousand crores. Here is the link
They also own a residential plot in France, and land in Uttar Pradesh's Barabanki district. They have properties in Noida, Bhopal, Pune, Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.

Much of the wealth I understand is held by 1% of the world.

@allknowing I've heard that too and no doubt it's true. It's a shame a few more of them didn't share their wealth a bit more.

We have so many such people who hoard knowing they cannot take it with them.

That is sad. It is especially sad to see children going hungry. My prayers to all hungry children that they might have some food to eat.

The pharmacist had tears too and I understand the kid was given food.

I just do not understand that logic. Living well is understandable but hoarding and leaving it behind is what baffles me.

Rajya sabha should feel proud of it. They have the queen of money in their team.

That is just so depressing. Even in my country, many are living in poverty.
