There's always someone poorer, and richer, than you. The poorer will be angry because he can't see your problems from your perspective. Nonetheless, people have problems at all levels, and we can't not talk about them, just because we might offend someone.

I erroneously assumed you were coming from a comparable socioeconomic background to that I'm used to. I assure you, the phenomenon I'm talking about is endemic to that context. I apologise for making you feel angry. But you're obviously a smart guy. One day, you'll be a lot better off than you are now. Who knows, maybe then you'll be saying things that your current self would find just as "infuriating".
