I think he's complaining about a tendency of writers who haven't grown up in abject poverty to try to write stories about the depths of crushing desperation. Perhaps he feels it rings false? I dunno.

If so, I disagree. I agree with Neil Gaiman: the only qualification for writing stories about people is to be a person.
