Just another problem with 'Murica

[CapnAwesome]

Every country in Eastern Europe the the poor are much more poor then in the US and the standard of living is lower. Do you really think Poland or the Ukraine has a higher standard of living for the poor then the US? Talk about a lack of perspective.

Yeah, well. Just board a plane and have a look. And then come back with an informed opinion. On that level, I'm done with that discussion

I've been to Poland, my step dad was from there. I know what it's like. I also have lived in Mexico, Chile and Argentina. Spent significant time in Peru and Columbia as well, I've seen real poverty and the real standard of living in the second world and there is an enormous gulf. You apparently don't even know that eastern europe has a lower standard of living then the US. I have a mission on these forums to make people aware of the world outside of the US and western Europe.

Compare that to someone who can name three eastern European countries (well one Balkan semi state and two countries) is pretty piss poor.
