Yeah, I'm not sure if this Charlie guy is for real. He's ignorant though, that's for sure. You can't just go somewhere like India and see the people living on the street in the mud, and assume that they're happy because they appear that way. They may seem happy but that's because those conditions are all they know - ignorance is bliss kind of thing. Once you learn that people on the other side of the world have it way better, that goes out the window. I've been to a number of countries, both developing and industrialized and I can tell you that it's easy to see who is genuinely, inherently happy with the way they live.
