I am with you on that, despite the fact that I am part of the rich 20% world population [1]. But you will probably find this issue to be drown soon enough under the flow of other first world news our media love to swamp us with. That being said, I believe part of the issue is the balance of power has changed into corporate hands with marketing taking a front role into leading us (the mass of consumers). The morale values that were one of the corner stones of previous institutions like the Church or the State to motivate nations are now just another commodity traded openly by economical actors that have but one goal: the bottom line. Should we find a way to coerce those ruling private entities that are corporation into performing actions that would benefit the rest of the society, we might actually be able to spread the wealth a bit better. Until then, you and me are bound to fight over the left overs of those new overlords. Sorry for the long rant, which is partly ironic.
