i have a legitimate question

statistically how many people in the entire world do you think would legitimately kill another man to have pic related breakfast?

if no one can answer someone send me to a board that can, ive been thinking about this shit all day
>>
Why a man? That's misandrist.

>>8173135
A very small number, mostly poor, considering how boring said breakfast appears to be. I'm not saying it's bad, but it's not hard to make or find cheap.

>>8173153
but what about starving people

With a guarantee of not getting caught? If that's the case, I probably would. I'm hungry as shit right now.

in 2012, 12.7% of people lived in "extreme poverty"
http://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/poverty/overview

Let's say about 1/3 of those people are children too young to kill someone
http://www.geohive.com/earth/population_age_1.aspx

So about 300 million people desperate and big enough to kill someone else for food. At that point, it comes down to your view of human beings. I'll stake it at 20%

Of course, the context of this decision is important too. Are you just throwing this meal on the ground in the middle of the poorest village/neighborhood on earth?
>>
>>8173135
I'm a student so I definitely would. We can therefore conclude at least 1 in 7.4 billion would
>>
>>8173135
30%-50% of the total population of the world.

Dude, if you can afford food like that, you're more rich than you really think.

>would legitimately kill another man
OP, is "legitimately" the new "literally"?
Please respect the English language more.
Only *you* can prevent white Ebonics.

As for your question: almost everybody eats well enough.
And don't forget cultural differences, lots of people would have cultural problems with bacon and/or eggs.
>>
>>8173207
So you can kill a man but can't crack a few eggs?
>>
The world has about 8 billion people. In your scenario, the person either will kill for it or won't (50% chance). Therefore, 4 billion people would kill for it.
>>
>>8173135
Do I get to choose who gets the kill because if so I'd kill for that breakfast if only I were able
