AFAIK underprivileged dream mostly about becoming more like privileged ones, and not so much about giving up everything to go and live in a jungle/mountains. IMHO most of the people complaining of modern life being too stressful are the middle or upper class working their asses off to buy a bigger house/car/yacht/whatever just because everybody around them does the same and that's what they see as a measure of success. Many of them could easily solve the problem by changing their life style, but that would mean giving up on some ambitions, social status and luxury. It's a choice one makes, not something you're forced into, so I really don't see them as victims, at least not victims of the society.
