Current Events > C/D If you live in the West, you're extremely privileged

(+) Yeah! (+)

There is no better place in the world than North America, Europe and Australia/New Zealand. Complete freedom to markets, live, speak, work, etc. Name me a better hemisphere that has the privileges that we do.

It's true the east coast is awful. Polluted air, zero nature, endless suburban sprawl and high crime

What about the Wild West?

D

Japan is the best country. Don't @ me.

I saw that Macadamia Nut.

The fuck dude? What'd I ever do to you

D, no it's not a 100% fact. Yeah, chances are your life is better than a lot of places, but there are still extremely poor people in places like the Appalachians.

This. As a general rule its likely true more often than not but go spend sometime on vancouvers downtown east side and tell me people there are privileged because of where they live.

Of course there's always places where there's poverty and homeless, but as a whole, the west is just flat out better than other countries in the world. Flat out.

Name me a better hemisphere.

You can't.

South America has a lot of poverty and corruption and criminals. Most places in Africa are extremely dangerous and poverty is everywhere. Asia is also full of poverty and there are still some crazy extremist governments (China, Philipines, etc). Middle east is full of bigots and war.
