I dunno, I grew up with the "there are kids starving in Africa" spiel and other such lectures. For my family, it was more like the idea that "lesser" parts of the world had problems because they were "lesser," and if anyone is suffering in America it's because they brought that "lesser" mindset with them from elsewhere.
