You realize what truly poor is -- when you travel to other countries.

We have plenty of water... people might be poor but they live in a house of some kind not out in the elements... if you're hungry - you can go somewhere and someone will feed you. If you're sick - you can get medical care regardless of whether or not you can afford it. Other countries have NONE of those luxuries.

If you want a job in this country you CAN get one... might not be the one you like or want but there are jobs. In other countries there are no jobs - of any kind.

We really are lucky to live in the USA despite all that we find to bitch about.
