Living on 30kUSD/yr is a lot different in London than it is in Buenos Aires. To set a universal safety net ensuring everyone had adequate food, shelter, education, medical care, transportation etc would be a lot cheaper than 60tUSD/yr.

Why would they agree to that? Or buying that with tax money, which nobody would agree to either. Second, as the last few decades have shown, just sending food, medicine and other supplies to these regions just makes more miserable people.
