Pretty bar graphs do not change the fact. It's a lot, but it's not the majority. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_percentage_of_population_living_in_poverty And it's not far off the US rate. Again, this is nothing to do with standard of living and absolute numbers. Just poverty line (as measured by various methods).
