I never claimed that the whole of the west was rich and nice, now did I? I do not consider the US to be a 1st world country, since your government leave to many hanging and the gap between the rich and the poor is just too huge.
And why on earth shouldn't I be allowed to compare living conditions in different parts of the world? To put matters in perspective is something everyone should do. Everyone has the right to be unhappy about one's life, whether if it's about your favorite sports team losing or if you can barely find water for the day, but it's no question as to which is the more serious matter. What you, living in a trailer, Chinese sweatshop workers and Romney has to do with rich middle class liking to whine about things that really doesn't matter have to do with each other, is beyond me.
My post was merely about agreeing with Hughsie, that it is ridiculous that people sit on the sidelines claiming to have superior knowledge of thing that they aren't even schooled in. When you don't have enough to worry about in your own life, you usually make something up and start butting in in other's affairs.

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
