Never trust 'so - called' stat's that maintain a modern way of life.
Stat's are misleading for very good reasons. Political stat's are obvious. Charity stat's do the same.
Trust instinct, I could never believe that things are worse that 200 years ago.
200 years ago in the uk , poverty was mental and a way of life.
5% ruled , 95% were slaves, no matter where in society one was.
A modern stat is for me that, a 'modern stat'.
Meaning that in this modern time its really bad for a percentage of socitey.
I would choose to live and be born in the west than ever in a modern world than a devoloping world anytime.
I have done the Mathmatics of the chance of being born in the UK or Europe or the USA.
When compared to being born in a world in development I am lucky (even though I was massivly abused as a kid).
To be born in a 'civilised' world is about a chance of 1 in 10.000. That is about 10 years old stat. I am going to check again.
Abuse is not the society it lives in. Its in the people who expect nothing for nothing. That to me is the 'civilised' world.
Sorry if this offends.
