but this a country were health care is more expensive than any developed country (while offering a fraction of the coverage), and wages have not kept of with the modern cost of living.

While this is true, a lot of this is largely symptomatic from the "blame everyone but the culprit" culture that is so prevalent in the US. The medical industry is a clusterfuck of bloated expenses resulting from bullshit lawsuits, insurance monopolies, deliberately unhealthy people constantly needing healthcare, drug R&D, etc.

The wages portion is almost worse because people love to spout off about an ambiguous living wage that always seems to include luxuries.

It's not hard to escape poverty if you live responsibly. I did it, I know tons of other people who have done it. It really is just a matter of living responsibly and working towards advancing your life.
