The UN World Food Program advocates for keeping the economy open to prevent starvation deaths, contradicting Alex Jones's claim that globalists want to crash the economy.

Also, if Alex's argument is that the globalists want to shut the economy down in order to kill off all these people, which seems to be what he's getting at, he's going to have to contend with this quote from the UN World Food Program executive director, David Beasley, from that very Globe and Mail article that he's citing as a source. Quote, if we lost our funding, a minimum 30 million would die. Over a three-month period, that would be 300,000 people dying per day. That's why leaders have got to balance out the COVID response with keeping the economy going because otherwise a lot more people will die from starvation and economic deterioration than from COVID itself. So the UN simultaneously wants to crash the economy to punish Trump and are advocating that we balance keeping some of the economy going so we can provide aid to the developing world. Seems like maybe the first one is just Alex's paranoid imagination.
