Bah. Just because the gap between the rich and the poor in the developed world hasn't reached the point where the rich get to kill the poor, then people should just shut the hell up? Even if the impoverished in the first world are able to afford enough food to survive on, it doesn't mean that it is a utopia.
There is so much wealth in North America. And yet so much suffering from poverty. It is about time that someone stood up and said that something just isn't working. And saying that "there are people who have it worse off" isn't right.
