[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] Ohh boy. Talk about denial. I post pictures of Africans slaving for other folks as the basis of built in and systematic poverty and these clowns talk about Europe and Japan as if that has anything to do with what is going on in Africa or Jamaica..... LOL! But ignore the fact that African countries make up most of the countries at the top of the list. And yes the percentages on this chart are meaningless because the way the poverty index is calculated is totally different from country to country. For example the poverty index in Japan is any family living below 17,000 yen a year. Whereas in Jamaica that is for people living below $2.00 a day, which equates to less than $730 a year. People in poverty in the U.S. are those making less than $12,000 a year. By U.S. standards that is pretty bad off, but compared to Jamaica and other countries that is almost rich. For example, most people in Jamaica or Africa who are in poverty don't have infrastructure. They live in Shacks. Electricity and Gas don't even exist. Compare that with people in America who probably live in some sort of housing and have gas and electricity and infrastructure. That doesn't compare to the poverty in most places in Africa.
