I really hate statements like that. Are you actually comparin us to places like Somalia or Ethopia and saying "We aren't really poor! Look at them!" It's like pointing to nations like Saudi Arabia or Iran and saying "Religion doesn't really have influence over our government! Look at them!" Why don't we shoot for something better than 'bottom of the barrel.'
