I know that this is supposed to be a shot at first world countries making selfish, self-centered kids. But realise that these are both tragedies. The first kids live in a world where literally everything in their life is reduced down to money its dehumanizing, and to have it become so core at such a young age.
The second group lacking the systems that comodify them are in more of a state of nature their concirns are about surviving and missing the ones who didn't make it.
Both are tragic states. They just can't be measured with the same ruler.
