What is so good about so-called developed countries? really?
I mean what is the point of being developed country when people have to pay for their education, people have to pay for their health care (excluding Canadians) and slowly and slowly our basic rights are being taken away from us too like freedom of speech so on...I have been to third world countries and I believe when comparing the pros and cons of both developed and thirdworld countries they are both equally bad and good. Like in third world countries at least there is less beauracracy. What do you think?
@ bored goblin: Really guaranteed income? Have you checked unemployment rate in most developed countries lately? and why are there so many homeless people in streets of downtowns too.

- There are guaranteed ways to earn money, so you have enough to pay for everything.
Edit: you shoudl check the unemployment rates in developing countries. And what kind of jobs the employed do.
- Doctors know that if they mess you up, they will lose their career.
- You will not get shot or tortured or imprisoned for voicing your opinions.
- If a business (or a government) screws you up, you can take them to court.
- There are very few ways a government or large business can take your property from you.
- If a son of a government official runs you over with his car, they cannot make it look like you kicked his parked car, and sue you for the damage:

The governments of developed countries think they've got the right to tell us what to do and for that we have to pay them exorbitant salaries and do what they say. The people in less developed countries are freer because their government basically changes everytime the weather does, but although these people are freer their lives are prone to be surrounded by more chaos.

The "developed world" can build as many buildings until their hearts are content and enforce as many dictatorship laws as much as they want, but there never has been, nor will there ever be, morality. For example, try out your own Bystander Effect experiment and see how developed we are and how much people's moral compasses are up the left. The west isn't Democratic, it's a sugarcoated oppression.
