I'm not saying people in this situation are spoiled rotten or that things aren't bad. I'm merely saying that we are so much better off in this country that *this* is what is dire when so many other places - that yes are cold, not just further south - have this reality daily. Our "spoiledness" if we want to call it that, is what makes this a little more dire. That and yes in these places so many people are stacked on top of each other that the basic needs cannot be met because you can't just scrounge.

Still, I do sympathise. I just find it interesting that these basic needs can't be met just because it doesn't meet the higher standards. It's devastating, it just seems truly strange that we seem to struggle just as much if not more than those countries that have far less... or at least we've told ourselves they do.
