There is a show on the Travel Channel where they take natives from the south pacific and show them New York City, Peoria, IL, Orange County and a couple other places. They go on roller coasters, learn how to play football, see a thanksgiving dinner etc....

The Orange County part absolutely disgusted me. I really try to think to myself when I don't agree with someone else's lifestyle "to each his own" and I remind myself that just because I don't agree doesn't mean that's the only way to think.

Well these people have just thrown me for a loop. It just amazes me that I am living paycheck to paycheck, late on bills sometimes, trying to pay for books etc... and these people have a porsche, a range rover and a golf course in their back yard. Plus they had a BOTOX PARTY! First off....you're injecting botchilism into your face.....you're going to have a party with it? On TV?! Their daughters don't do anything around the house and go out to the spa to get pedicures and facials all day.

I mean seriously....people are dying all over the world...some of them probably just down the street from you from lack of food or shelter....and you're putting a golf course in your back yard?! Sometimes I just want to strip those people of everything and have them live like "normies" for a month. How can people be so excessive? It just makes me sick. I feel bad for having a surround sound system and these people have 50,000 dollar cars for each person in their family.
Thanks for this!
