It's a capitalistic society that values things and money above almost everything else. If you are poor, you are treated like crap. It's all about the monetary worth of someone and the worth of what they own. It's more of a culture thing.


This is ridiculous. There are so many other things Americans care about than things and money, not that these joys in life are bad thing. Additionally, one of the merits of the U.S is that social class doesn't exist to the extent of economic class. Doctors and waiters can be best friends, and often are. So I don't know where you got the impression the poor are treated like crap. Also can you name me a first world country that doesn't incorporate capitalist modes of production?
