lpv:translated text	"Madam President, we are hardened to the fact that people are still dying of hunger and disease in this developed, globalised community of ours. They could be saved with modern medicines and food that is thrown away. Cheap aid programmes would mean the lives of six million children under the age of five could be saved each year. We accept the fact that people amass huge sums in profits worldwide. It is common to steal billions. It is not true that if individuals amass wealth on a colossal scale it will benefit the community at large. There is a limit to hunger, but not to greed. The best remedy is taxation. The rich oppose it. It means sharing. Charity is not solidarity; sharing is. Capitalism thrives on greed, and so does poverty. Ladies and gentlemen, let us resolve the problem of deprivation in the same way as with the wars in Europe: through cooperation."@en1
