I'm basically unemployed, just tending a small store which provide our daily needs. A dollar per post might help but that's not enough to be considered rich, even in this 3rd world country I live in.

If you're getting paid, you're not unemployed. I'm glad that work from tending the small store and a bit of income from this site helps you out.

I think a lot of your are missing my point.

There are nearly 2 BILLION people that live on less than a dollar a day. These are the poor in this world. The rest of us are rich. And for those of us who participate in a signature campaign, we can make more than $1 a day from this activity...therefore we are not poor by Earth standards.

Broaden your perspective on this. Rich doesn't equal yacht. Super, uber fucking rich equals yacht. We're all rich if we have steady income and enough to put a roof over our bed, clothes on our back, and food in our mouth. There's a significant portion of people in this world we all share that don't have those basic life needs.
