You people really don't know what first world country means. It has absolutely nothing to do with a nation's state of development, or the problems that it faces.
It was some back room terminology used by henry kissinger et. al. to differ from member nations of NATO, or not member nations, that ended up being taken out of context and ran away with.

The concept of First World originated during the Cold War and comprised countries that were aligned with United States and the rest of NATO and opposed the Soviet Union and/or communism during the Cold War.
