Telling a group in poverty they are responsible for their own plight without (genuinely) offering the tools to assist them out of it is insulting. At best, I think what you say is partly true, and not very helpful.

Which is simply illustrative of how out of touch foreigners are with the realities in America...Ya'll are fed what to believe by media sources, typically liberal, who are biased in their interpretation, and as a result they breed that world-wide out-of-touchness.
It is no wonder the world hates us...American media gives them plenty of false fodder.
