I'm always amazed at what little knowledge north americans have of the rest of the world...
I know of loads of places in this planet where life is wonderful, where people are friendly, cultivated, highly civilized, where money may or may not abound, but has, thankfully, much less relevance than it has here.
Perhaps getting out of the anglosaxon comfort zone (Canada, US, GB, Australia, South Africa, NZ, Ireland etc.) and mingle, and I mean really mingle, not watching "the natives" through the lens of the anthropologist in us, would do wonders...

As to the right wing, religiously fanatic, racist, incredibly naive, reductive and simplistically financially driven prognosis about the very complex affairs of the world situation ....I just couldn't care less, no disrespect.
