People are always having problems with money etc and theres starving ppl in different countries, so why doesnt someone just leave the money machine on...?? and then give the money to ppl who need it

Printing too much money leads to inflation!
To stop people starving requires more to be produced or for what is being produced already to be distributed differently.
This is the essance of the debate over different economic sytems,
a) which produces more
b) how will what is produced be distributed.
We see from history that capitalism generally leads to more being produced but a less even distribution.
Socialism can be more equitable but generally less efficient thus less is produced.
The world could broadly be characterised as capitalist at the moment, thus enough food is produced but it is distributed in a way such that many have far too much whilst some do not have enough.........
