To be sure, the desire to live in a modern society and to be free of tyranny is universal, or nearly so. This is demonstrated by the efforts of millions of people each year to move from the developing to the developed world, where they hope to find the political stability, job opportunities, health care, and education that they lack at home.
的确，想要生活在现代社会和摆脱专制的欲望确实是普世的，或者基本如此。每年，数以百万计的人极力从发展中国家移居到发达国家，他们希望在那里找到在祖国所缺乏的政治稳定、工作机会、医疗以及教育。由此足以验证这一点。
