Doesn't it make sense to take food away from Ruandans rather than to feed

This question betrays a profound lack of knowledge of the legal system in
the developped nations and I don't see any point in answering it.

If you really want to understand this, go to a law professor and ask them
to recommend a couple of books you can read that will help you to
understand why this is a silly question to ask.
