What defines "lower standard of living", though? From my point of view, most of the population of this country has freely and voluntarily chosen to live at a much lower standard of living than they could easily obtain.
Just for instance, which person has the better quality of life, the one who lives one paycheck from disaster, or the one whose savings has made him financially independent? How about the physically fit versus the morbidly obese?
