That fact of "eliminating hunger for 216" years is also very likely not taking into account how much devaluation will happen once you dump about 2 trillion stagnant dollars into the economy, Mansa Musa style. The actual dollar value that is given from Billionaires to everybody else won't matter so much on a global hunger logistics scale once every civilian has been paid out.
The fact is that straight up puncturing all of the money directly out of a BILLIONAIRE all at once won't entirely and suddenly solve all of the problems you can ponder. It will still take time, effort, and lots of work from everyone in the production/supply chain. Although that work we all need to do will be a lot less stressful with plenty of food on the table and cheap houses on the market.
