Actually what is most important is education. Starvation should not be allowed, instead what is needed is for the society to develop and in time it will reach an education level where people will just have fewer kids. One of the firsts posts talked about this. The world is not in a phase where the population is increasing exponentially because the birth rate is reaching the replacement rate in most of the wolrd. That means that the birth rate is decreasing, I was worried about overpopulation until reading an article from The Economist where it talked about this very issue. In fact my way of thinking was very much like yours but now I see that it is best when nations help each other.
