Everyone could live _modestly_, like middle class Cambodians but with better healthcare, yes.

The issue is a tiny number of wildly consumptive rich people.

Whilst it's easy, simple and populist to blame a tiny [x] group of people for all that is wrong with society, it does not have a good historical precedence: try asking any Germans you know!

More difficult is to acknowledge the huge middle-class that has been created as a result of globalisation over the last decades.
