I do think that countries like the U.S should help out countries with a lower standard of living because the countries with a lower standard of living don't know what it's like to have luxuries and by the high standard of living countries to maybe share some of their resources so everybody can live a better life.
A country's standard of living does not show how everybody in that country lives. Some people could be really wealthy as some others may not be so wealthy. Just because a small group of people are wealthy does not mean that the country has a high standard of living because what if those not so wealthy people out number the wealthy people? Then your country wouldn't have a high standard of living.
The most interesting thing that I found about standard of living was seeing how well off we are compared to other countries. The U.S has a very high standard of living, and from living here all of my life to just seeing pictures and reading about other countries standard of living it was eye opening to see how much better off we are compared to the country that I looked at. Some things that we take for granted like running water would be a luxury for people in a lower standard of living because they don't have the money to install running water.
