Just because I live in NYC where I see plenty of homeless people, drug addicts, and alcoholics doesn't mean that I know their plight.
When i travel to third world countries and if I stay in 5 star hotels it doesn't bring me any closer to knowing their plight. I'll accept that she's more aware of their plight but unless you've been really impoverished one can never know the plight of poverty.
