The typical American probably thinks that, outside of Hong Kong, everyone lives in extreme poverty in shacks. Or at best, in very small apartments in massive plain concrete buildings that look like prisons.
Just last week, I was talking with a coworker who didn’t realize South Africa had paved roads.
Saw a TV show the other day where a Cuban refugee is sick and someone goes "They had to flee. No way to get treatment in Cuba." and I'm just like, Cuba? The country with one of the world's best healthcare systems? The one that educates the most doctors per capita? That Cuba?
But sure, flee to the US, where penniless immigrants tend to have access to excellent care, I'm sure.
