As someone who specializes in logistics, I can confirm that we could indeed distribute our resources equally across the globe and make sure every last human is provided for and even guaranteed basic rights to medical care and other services.
Physically and logically we could do all this. Our supply chain network is a miracle, it's the most awe-inspiring thing we've ever built.
It's the social and political will keeping us from having that world, and of course nations and borders and the cultures within who harbor fear, xenophobia, resistance to changes and defensiveness. We would need some form of unified governing body to ensure the right things make it to the right people fairly, and we are pretty far from people accepting that kind of power into the world.
If we all woke up with amnesia, maybe we could do it tomorrow. But right now we're all swimming in the product of millenia of borders and spear-points directed at each other.
