Wealth is rather concentrated here, but that doesn't mean there is no money.
Being here is a reminder to me of the good things that a relatively uncorrupted peoples government can provide. A good education and therefore opportunity for the bulk of the populace, good healthcare, and a social system that moderates vast class inequalities.
