【問題】那在海外的"台灣人"層次高嗎????

[OoLucyoO 10]

美國阿...

物價真的比台灣貴多了~_~

可是貧富差距還是有的阿~

像某些老墨區跟黑人區(不是種族歧視喔,只是闡述一個現況)

生活環境很差欸~

[leiwine 10]

不過他們奢侈是他們

他們以後是爸媽用錢堆出來的

會坐吃山空還怎樣沒人知道

不過說真的

窮一點還可讓人頭腦保持清醒

太奢侈腦袋都不知道去那了

(我是窮瘋的)

Yeah...and the States isn't doing anything about it (at least the current administration). The rich are only a handful in the States. The poor are all over the place. *sigh*

基本上台灣人普遍社經地位都還不錯，大部分居住在比較好的區域

去china town之類的逛逛，那裡現在都是大陸人..

貧富差距在所有資本主義國家都是一個很嚴重的問題

現在的社會福利制度雖然被人詬病的問題一堆，可是其實也養活了不少人...

每個國家都有他自己的問題啊XD

自己工作賺錢買的→佩服

父母買的→鄙視

加州果然很多spoiled kids

花父母錢有啥好炫耀的

車只不過是個代步工具

[MikiRei 10]

加州果然很多spoiled kids

Do they actually act like kids on "The O.C" or "My Super Sweet 16"? If they do, yes, they're spoiled. In fact, that's BEYOND spoiled. Though.....my cousin's who live in the Orange County are fairly cool people. I guess it's something to do with their parents as well. The other day, I saw a video that showed this mother taking her 6 year old daughter to a tanning parlour so she can get a tan and be "the prettiest girl in class". I feel like throttling the mother. >_>

NO!!!

OC是假的!!!

我自己就住在OC跟Los Angeles County的邊界

學校在OC

我英文老師家在OC拍攝地點附近,她弟弟也讀那間小學

講說是實境節目,其實都是有安排台詞的

怎麼可能天天都有Drama~一定會有比較平淡的日子

那這樣節目怎麼做阿?

沒人要看無聊的東西吧=_=

加州的孩子真的沒有那麼誇張啦!

只是因為我讀的是私校

私校風氣本來就比較...奢糜(攤手)

這是沒辦法的阿~

一般美國孩子可以讀免費的公立高中

可是父母願意花大錢(真的是大錢!)讓小孩讀私校,可見家裡有一定經濟能力能負擔(留學生例外! 留學生是沒辦法讀公立才讀私立的!!! 並不是所以人家境都很富裕!)

[MikiRei 10]

Haha! Yes, I do realise it's not to that extent. I was more asking whether it's anywhere CLOSE to that. OC bores me to death. The only time I've watched it was at school when it was raining so all the other girls opted to watch the episode from last night which someone taped. >_>

Super Sweet Sixteen....I've only HEARD about it.

Sounds...VERY similar to Australia though I think overseas student tend to go to public schools here more so than private schools. Reason being, most private schools don't like to take in overseas student - especially since most of them come in like, year 11 or 12. That's HSC year. Private schools need their reputation. They wouldn't want one student trailing behind in English which is compulsory, affecting the school mark and other student's marks.

Though, as I understand it, school fees in the states is like 20x more expensive than Australia. It's insane. Of course people can go to public schools but not all public schools have the greatest education (at least in Australia. If the high school isn't selective, then it's usually = =|||). That's like saying, if you don't have money, you don't deserve a good education. Quite stupid in my opinion. >_>

1) sigh....yea "SWEET SIXTEEN"

那個是大家來比誰比較奢糜

還推出前十名節目裡面花最多錢的=_=

我看了幾次(禮拜天通常會播一系列的馬拉松)都在想...為什麼不拿那些錢去救助需要幫助的人呢?

還有另一個節目是關於美國最奓侈的豪宅...還做個top 12=_=

2)well...that's ture but very sad. (sigh)

The richer you are, the more advantages you get.

That's why I pay high respects to those who work very hard even though they have to fight only on their own.

[MikiRei 10]

The richer you are, the more advantages you get.

In our current society, unfortunately, yes. This is why I reckon Sweden's done a good job. It's communism that actually worked. :p From what I've heard, they tax everyone off to the same income. ie. the more you earn, the more you get taxed off so that everyone ends up with the same income. The government then actually use the tax for public services including transport and education. So what happen is, public transport and such are all free there. A friend of mine who stayed there at one point said you can borrow a bike at one city, cycle to the other end of the country and return it to the depot there all for free since it's all covered through tax. As for the schools there - man! The public education is better than the private education since the government have so much revenue through tax that they've used a lot of it in the education sector. Ack - zipping up now. >_>
