Probably also a fallacy that it would take infinite amounts of money to alleviate poverty (:

Since people can multiply, infinite amounts is a possible scenario. Also scarcity - think of "a kingdom for a horse". If there are 1000 apples and 1001 people, and everybody who doesn't get an apple starves to death, the 1001th apple would be worth an infinite amount of money to the 1001th person at least, or to the person who wants to save them by all means.

Unless my physics course misled me, no, it isn't.

The value can be infinite. If you are about to die, you would give everything to prevent it - more than you have.
