Think about
If we
could shrink the earth's population
to a village of 100 inhabitants and
if the proportions of all existing
nations would remain the same then
the village would be composed like
this:
-
57
Asians
-
21 Europeans
-
14
Americans
(North and
South)
-
8
Africans
-
52
would be
female
-
48
were males
-
70
non-whites
-
30
white
-
6
people would
possess 59%
of total
world wealth
-
80
would live
in
substandard
housing
Wohnverhältnisse
-
70
would be
illiterate
-
50
would be
malnourished

 If
you woke up this morning sicker than
healthy, you're happier than a
million people who will not survive
the next week.
If you've never experienced a war,
the loneliness of imprisonment or
have felt hungry, then you are
happier than 500 million people in
the world.
If you go to church without the fear
that you are threatened to get
arrested or even killed, you are
more blessed than 3 billion people
in the world.
If you have food in your fridge,
you're dressed, have a roof over
your head and a bed to lie down,
then you're richer than 75 percent
of the inhabitants of this world.
If you have an account with the bank
or some money in your wallet, you
belong to eight percent of the
wealthy people in this world.

Who
among us would now say, he does not
belong to the elected, privileged
and rich ones?
