You don't help your case by spouting patent nonsense.

According to standard figures, the population is currently
around 6 billion, and death rates are around 9 per thousand
annually, worldwide.  This implies that 54,000,000 people
die WORLDWIDE from ALL CAUSES.

The claim, then, that "Western greed" causes the deaths of
millions per week is pure bunk.  

None of this has anything to do with GNE, except in a tangential way
-- it shows what kind of quality you can expect -- and what kind of
authors you will attract -- without editorial oversight.
