Agreed.  I think you owe this guy an apology for your misinterpretation, he's just trying to participate.

Victor, your political views are skewed. So are your facts. In
Vietnam, $5 is far above poverty level. According to wikipedia [1] the
GDP in the US is 14,624,184 USD and in Vietnam it's 101,987 USD. If
you can divide you can see that's a factor of 143. Far more than 40
actually.

See also this page [2] that the Gross National Income (per capita) in
the US is $33,070.30 per person and in Vietnam it's $392.19 per
person. Factor of 84.

Based on less than $400 per year, $5 is actually a very, very good
rate in Vietnam.

Please check your facts before you spew.

Thank you,
Fred
