helping more people
DrCrazyFishMan1
not if you look at it so that everybody can get cancer, whereas nobody you know will die of starvation
Utamey
So we should only help people if it affects us?
D'vaughn Clarke
agree with Utamey,thats a selfish thing if you picked red...
lordgiza
Not really. We have the resources and technology to end world hunger. But not the technology to cure all forms of cancer yet.
niewiem33
i picked this because we can actually end world hunger, because we have more than enough food for billions of people in the world but we dont spread it evenly, yet curing cancer is a mystery.
fluffee123
@D'vaughn Clarke, so your saying your selfish if you cured cancer, kill yourself!
xXB4XYXx
@D'Vaughn, it's not selfish. Either choice is selfless. I chose red because a very close family friend passed away because of cancer.

Finding a cure for cancer can help a lot of people too P.S my mom had cancer but survived

only do it if it affects you why because fuck africa
_Slenderman_
They found a cure for cancer I think. The only reason the aren't giving it out is because it will put the pharmacy out of business or something I just read about it today
Tokoyami
That's called a conspiracy, and as such you can't be sure whether it is true...
troll999202
anyone can get cancer even people that are suffering world hunger
moveschris
Does it matter as long as you're helping people? Besides, it is easier to start in your own back yard but going big is still okay.
Godless
exactly, lets make this clear, WAAY more people die of starvation than cancer, yes cancer is bad, but world hunger is much worse. i dont see why this is a discussion?
Donald Neal
Slenderman, no they didn't. It went through multiple clinical trials and could not determine anything on the information they got. There is no "Cure" for cancer. Because cancer refers to a group of over 200 different diseases needing different treatment.
Erik Burman
OMG HOW CAN NOBODY HAVE SAID THIS NATURAL SELECTION YOU IDIOTS IF THE ONES THAT GET CANCER GET EXTINCT WE WILL NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEM. Yes, I know . This is out of morals but rather that than that people die for nothing, besides more die from that, anyways.
Yago Stecher
Erik, most forms of cancer are not hereditary, so there's no reason to support natural selection on this one. People will still get cancer, even after all the people with cancer die without a cure.

I can smoke all I want (not that I don't do it anyway).
Zaltys
Ehh. I'm sure someone will find a cure for cancer soon enough. Give it a couple more decades. But the world hunger? That's a tougher problem.
Klocknov
Ending world hunger would only work till the next war as it would require multiple nations to work together, where as finding the cure for cancer will help in the years to come and pass whether world hunger is fixed or not. Honestly the first option helps more people now but the cure to cancer will ultimately help more people in the future to come.
pirate
People with hungry pass their whole life with hungry. Cancer is just a part of people's life.
Redditor
Wtf if grammar nazi was here he would shoot you.
Stijn
@Redditor What kind of a silly name is that, you are a disgrace to reddit for being such a self-complacent redditor.
Alison
Wow pirate... Heartless much?
pirate
@ Redditor: right, try to speak entirely correctly a language that's not your own. @Alison: I'm not saying cancer would be easy, but hungy is slightly more dramatic...
PS3Damon
If you end world hunger who says that it won't start again? But if you cure cancer you save millions and MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE
Big Man
I totally agree with you man
Tom
Ending world hunger implies permanently, if it was temporary it would have been stated, that's like saying curing cancer until it mutates to a new incurable strain.
jeji
well the choices flatly say "End world hunger" or "Find a cure for cancer", so right out the bat you can choose whether to END world hunger for sure, or still FIND a cure for cancer implying it hasn't been found yet..
PoopEater
Who says cancer wont' come back?
Mazarine Paquier
we're a lot closer to curing cancer than ending world hunger, and frankly I'm pretty sure there are more people suffering and dying of hunger than cancer.
Auburn
Cancer has touched every one at least one time or another
hahaha
You're selfish. Ending world hunger would help more people ( young and old ) and curing cancer would olny help the older people and their relatives.
Madison
Fuck i didnt mean to press agreed for that guy because you are right and he is an ass
Addex
My dad died to cancer, I still think ending world hunger would be a bigger help. Don't even say anything about my dad cause he was amazing.
Molly
@hahaha Kids and young adults get cancer too. Not just old people.
PeekyChew
Curing world hunger is impossible as a lot of countries bring it on themselves.
Kunchoman
Lol. This site isn't about whether things are possible or not.
valduck17
Shut up
Alec Martinez
Ins't a cure for cancer in general impossible as well since there are so many types?
Steven

horsedickdotmpeg
You help way more people.
Ketarou
Cure for cancer or end world hunger... so not only does world hunger affect more but also finding the cure for cancer does not mean its viable, it may be too expensive. At the same time ending world hunger could lead to more countrys trying to build up their economy and more wars.
Tony26
Curing cancer will take years to process, world hunger will be immedent satisfaction.
Demon1981
neither in my opinion they help keep the population down. call me crazy and such but the world is over populated and these help.
Kunchoman
Well I clicked the wrong one. o.o. Cancer research is progressing to the point where it will be able to be cured soon. World hunger on the other hand doesn't seem to be going away too much.
Tom
well said
TheSmartAsset
World hunger is a bigger epidemic, i'm afraid.
Tom Swift
world hunger = pop control cancer = help friends etc
nicowhat
We product enough food to feed 12 billion people : World hunger is because of capitalism (demand and offer law).

don't you remember what happened when they cured cancer in I am ledgend!
Ninja
Both would change lives so stfu people!
asmodeu
Hunger is still a huge issue all over the world. I'd resolve problems on a pyramid scale - what's important for our survival is the base and gets high priority.
RikuXander
Ending world hunger would mean that there would be more people available to cure cancer. Also, ending world hunger is the only one which is actually possible atm.
Trevski
Cancer will eventually be solved in the laboratory. World Hunger will need a change global paradigms. If your could just wish for one of two jobs to be done, wouldn't you wish for the harder one?
Liz Cali
If world hunger wasnt an issue anymore, there might be more funding and time given to a cure for cancer.
Danielrockerr
Cure for cancer would be heaps better because lots of people would have more freedom (smoking tanning etc) world starvation will always be in the world no matter what.
Bevise
Just because it's harder to do
Carlos
Dont care bout the money
JZA
We produce enough food to end world hunger for everyone already, it's just not distributed properly.
wrathseed
I would do cancer. Would hunger being solved would lead to overpopulation and a lack of space, while a cure for cancer would help alot of people without significantly raising human population
Egg-celent
Hunger kills way more people than cancer. We are already very close to a cure for cancer, this one was easy
Stephanie Rae Menden
Something that can be cured is never again an issue. World hunger can only be helped, it will never be ended.
Matthew
Ending world Hunger is an EXTREMELY difficult thing to do, and it would effect more ppl. Plus, ppl without food in Africa... those results are JUST as bad as cancer is.
Oscar
There probably 1 billion people suffering from starvation right now. And there are lots of people around the world that maybe have to eat thrash and food that none of you would even touch. Cancer is a rich worlds sickness. Curing world hunger would make the world a lot better place. Also since our medical skills are getting better every year, I think that cancer will be completely cured in maybe 10-20 years.
Danielrockerr
Im pretty sure one of the people who are dieing from starvation would also have cancer.
Devon
We have the "cure" for world hunger already. It's called food. Cancer is prevalent around the whole world, not just 'rich worlds'. Curing cancer would be a ground breaking biological and pharmaceutical discovery.
nooo
Ending world hunger would be easier if people just participated. Most Americans throw out perfectly good food instead of donating it. Definitely a cure for cancer.
alex
people dying from hunger are twice more than the once dying from cancer.
Laurence 'Lewy' Town
But there is no cure for cancer, if the pope were to stop endorsing the subjugation of women we could stop world hunger in a generation
runnerman98
This is tricky. In advanced countries, it's more likely you will die of cancer than hunger. If you can afford a smartphone or computer, chances are you can afford a meal.Therefor you will choose "cure cancer" instead of global hunger even though more people for from hunger. Depends on point of view.
Ferreteh
I'm rather certain that starving is much more common than cancer, death rates or not. Besides, assuming that we're using realistic logic here and not magical powers, this would mean the industrialisation of third-world countries. I'm rather certain that this is much more profitable and revolutionary than the cure for cancer, with all due respect. I've got a cancerous grandmother and a family especially prone to cancer, so I could only be more convincing if I had cancer myself.
tuppenycrane
:D i ended world hunger and now we never need to eat, and you guys found a cure for cancer hooray *high fives*
Milen
End world hunger, does that mean that cells wont need to be replaced by new ones ? *Immortality here I come*
Aquila
my mum has cancer ...
Усамљени Вук
the cure for cancer was already found and the little shits in africa can go hunt by themselves.
Andrew
The more people alive and healthy, the more people who can become doctors and help cure cancer.
District 9 3/4
3 people in my family, myself included, have all been diagnosed with separate forms of cancer, and we all pulled through. I'm sorry for those who disagree and it is hard for everyone involved, but I think solving world hunge is more important, but only just
Greentiger
NFL players make enough money for food to actually end world hunger (this fact may have changed since i first heard it but probobaly not if they worked together) but not everyone can find a cure for cancer. Plus people in the future will also have cancer meaning that you can't say you will save more people either way. boom
Pennies_everywhere
There's already too many people on this earth, so in my mind I had to choose between two evils really.
Divinity
IM HUNGRY .....IMMA ORDER CHINESE
Divinity
by finding the cure for cancer, we might actually get closer to finding out the key to immortality because right now, thats what standing in the way
Dyonus
Feed the cancer to the sick!
Lee
My father died of cancer, I am 21. You selfish moronic people sicken me.
Anorexic_Kangaroo
I know scientists are on the road to curing cancer. I would pave the road myself for world hunger. 'Nuff said.
Stjepan Zgm GaŁłć
If we had cure for cancer would everybody who has cancer be able to afford it. Think about that.
Danieldanman
lordgiza, we have the technology to solve world hunger but no one is using the tech. Also, were pretty close to a cure for cancer
Akaito San
Breast cancer o-o
Ingrid
We can already help world hunger, but we don't have a perfect cure for cancer yet. Besides, if we had a cure for cancer, maybe we could spend more time helping world hunger.
