If we would try to represent humanity by a village of 100 people, but would preserve the proportions of the peoples on earth, we would find the following composition:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 Americans (North and South)
8 Africans
52 female
48 male
70 Non-white
30 white
70 Non-Christians
30 Christians
89 straight
11 queer
6 persons would hold 59 percent of global wealth and all 6 would come from the USA
80 would not have sufficient shelter
70 would be illiterate
50 would be malnourished
1 would die
2 would be born
1 would have a PC
1 (sic!) would have an academic degree
If you woke up this morning, healthy and not sick, then you're better off than 1 Million people, who will not survive the next week.
If you never experienced war, never went through slavery or the agony of torture, or never experienced extreme hunger, then you're better off than 500 million people world-wide.
If you can go to a church, without having to fear that somebody will incarcerate you or will kill you for doing so, then you're better off that 3 billion humans on earth.
If you do have sufficient nutrition, clothing and shelter, and your own bed, then you're richer than 75 percent of humanity.
If you have a deposit at a bank, maybe with some money on it and some cash in you pocket then you belong to the richest 10 percent in this world.
"Economics concerns itself with the greatest of all human dramas: the epic struggle of humanity to escape from want" (J.M. Ferguson)
