What do you think makes up a First World living standard? I am not talking about movie stars but what would you consider an average person to have access to/ own?
Feel free to add things in the comments, I only get 30 options per poll. There is no real order to the tickies.
By 'free' I mean paid for by taxes, not charity.

I am not sure that I would consider places like that to have FWLS.
Living in a country that is considered FW does not mean that all regions or people have access to a FWLS.

More like: 3 bedrooms, for mom&dad plus 2 kids.

And except for "going to the movies a couple times a month," I'm counting myself damn lucky right now, I.

Basically what I am asking is what 'you' consider that standard to be, not what you have. Not having does also not necessarily mean not available. E.G. If not having a car/TV etc is a choice and not due to lack of finances that does not subtract from the living standard.

Also, v interesting that things the most ppl have voted for are what could be considered public benefits.
