Spoilt BratsMr Newton sighs, "ever known anyone so spoilt you would love to strangle? I lived with a Paris Hilton-a-like who complained about everything, stomped her feet and whinged till she got her way. There was a happy ending though: she had to drop out of uni due to becoming pregnant after a one night stand..."
Who's the spoiltest person you've met? Has karma come to bite them yet? Or did you in fact end up strangling them? Uncle B3ta (and the serious crimes squad) wants to know.

UmmYou know the difference between relative and absolute poverty right? Well in Britain at the moment there is a massive gap between the superich and the relatively impoverished. Money and material possesions actualy have very little to do with wether you are spoilt or not anyway. And as for rationing? We may not have rationing at the moment but there's plenty of families in this supposedly developed country too poor to afford decent food. Hell, I remember growing up missing the occasional day's dinner, and there where families poorer than mine. Anyway, I ramble on, but my point is mostly that you cannot compare one society to another (IE post war Britain to contempory Britain) because the levels of average wealth are so different.
