I'm sorry, I have trouble taking part in the debate when I don't really see the justification of your arguement.
The biggest problem with the world is simply this:
Overpopulation. Overpopulation has massive influences on (if not, the sole reason for) other major problems in our world today. World hunger is another one of those problems that overpopulation helps influence.
Sorry, your example given is just odd. The rich don't TAKE the food and medical supplies from the poor, they simply neglect to show any generousity with what they have, whether it be out of greed, naivity, ignorance, simple laziness/forgetfulness, or the thought that their contribution isn't truly enough to really make a difference.
I really don't see greed as the main issue here, because if I were to ask myself (I, who's bad with money and always happy to see someone smile; who will tip someone 2 euros for a beer simply because it's what was in my spare change pocket...) why I don't donate anything to such organizations, I'd say it's out of laziness, not greed.
EDIT: Morg, who says monkeys can't fish? D8 Fuck, elephants paint. Why can't monkeys fish? Hell, Chimps fish for bugs, in a sense.
I really have trouble believing some areas are "bound for poverty..." xP
