Friends of mine recently returned from attending a family wedding in Argentina. The Ukraine protests of the elections were in full swing. "Why isn't this happening in your country?" they were repeatedly asked. "Why aren't there thousands in the streets protesting -- the exit polls were so different from the results, surely you suspect foul play." My friends didn't have an answer. "Ah," the taxi driver lamented, "You Americans are so rich you don't care. Even the poor people are fat in your country."
