Covid-19 Is a Wicked Problem

When no superpower or developed country alone is able or capable of solving the global coronavirus crisis, whose solution requires the knowhow of both friendly and unfriendly nations.
With Beijing’s initial cover-ups and President Trump’s recurring lies and conspiracies on the coronavirus while in office, the world, which recognizes that Covid-19 is a wicked problem, is skeptical that these two superpowers could put aside their differences to fight the pandemic.

White kid problem

A problem that only wealthy (typically white) kids have. These problems tend to be trivial and annoying, as opposed to real problems, which can be life threatening (i.e. "I have no food."). Can be abbreviated to WKP, for easy use.
White kid: I have no place to smoke my weed.
Other kid: White kid problem.

White kid: My dad's mega-yacht isn't big enough!
Other kid: WKP

Luxury Problem

When some spoiled, self absorbed, rich douche is complaining about his or her trivial annoyances when they should have better things to worry about like the rest of us poor chumps... paying bills, buying food, etc.

Extends to rich business owners and corporations when any kind of rule or regulation is imposed on them.
Rich guy: "My new Italian Marble floor in my fifth bathroom has a crack in it."

You: "Sounds like a Luxury Problem."

The new regulations say I have to pay to clean up the toxic chemicals I dumped in the river! Now I might not be able to buy another vacation home!

Yup, Luxury Problem for sure.
