The working poor in America have the standard of living that is fantastically rich compared to the genuinely poor world.

But they don't own it. They rent it or, more often, they owe it to someone.

No debt peon or unpropertied proletarian can really be called rich, because everything he has can pretty much be taken away by someone else's whim.
