To bad our government is running things like a 3rd world, but our Vice President said entering LGA is like entering a 3rd world country or even worse! Projects in the 3rd world excuse my French, low income countries housing projects are probably far worse than what we have here in NYC. In some countries cops are out gunned by gang and drug lords and military assistance is needed when entering these areas. Any way the 3rd world does not mean a country that is poor, its not even and economic term. The 3rd world just means countries that are not aligned with the Soviet Union or the USA which was complete BS. 2nd world is Soviet Union, China, Cuba, North Korea and 1st world, USA, Europe, Japan and Israel Sheesh I don't know why so many Americans and even New Yorkers in general are still stuck in a post WW2 political mindset! But overall the low income countries wont have many to run housing projects. I agree man and you get a rep for that.

Third World - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
China fell out with the Soviet Union and became non aligned. But since there is no Soviet Union, the world alignment has changed. Also some European countries are pretty poor (Greece, Ireland, parts of Eastern Europe, Portugal), while some non European countries these days like South Korea, UAE, Taiwan are pretty well off. China is set to replace the US as the world's biggest economy and India is about to replace Japan as number 3. Before you talk about China and India having many poor people, so does the US. Look at the massive income inequalities in the US, particularly in big cities.

Now I'm curious about what jobs those gangsters held? What do they do? Were/are any of them in school or college?

At 6 AM, most were rising to begin their paper-delivery routes. A few were heading to church, the rest to charm school.
