To be honest.....he does raise a point that most dont think of.

Our standard of living is vastly closer to a person like Bill Gates than it is those living in abject poverty in other parts of the world.

We live in houses, we have climate controlled environments, we have enough nutritional value to let us live reasonably healthy lives with decent life expectancies , we have access to health care and a government safety net.

Even when I was poor I was doing "off the charts" better than many in this world.
