They have a obligation for poor people for a simple reason: You can only be rich because others are poor. The wealth of the US and Europe are based on exploiting poor countries, their workers, their resources. Cheap clothes and electronics from china, customer support and programmers from india, diamands, gold, silver, etc. from africa, just a few examples.

It's not necessarily a bad thing because it improves overall economic growth and wealth wordwide, but it certainly comes with some sort of obligation.
