You're in severe denial as to the problems in India.
Life expectancy is 66 years, infant mortality runs at a stratospheric 5%.
Be weary or the Naxalites may come take your land.
David,i don't think you know about life.
Here people don't give a damn f*** to their own brothers or sister if they are failing in life.
They are all filled within their own life and sh*t that even rich brother don't even bother or feel to help her married sister if she is suffering or in help of need.
I know one family were the elder brothers did not care about their own sister at the time of her marriage.
This guys took decision to marry there own sister to a groom who was not at all settled in life.
This girl had to suffer huge financial problems in life later.
Now this guys have inherit property from their parents.
This brother's have a moral responsibility to give that sister part of her parents property.
Still this brothers are not ready to help her own sister.
About parents,many guys start feeling their parents as burden when their own parents become ill or get retired.
I know one whose father was suffering from dementia problem,they avoided medical treatments because they felt it was not going to be helpful to his father.
This guys were literally waiting to get free from this.(Understand what i meant).
Few guys even refrain from paying medical bills of own parents.
Then why the f*** they will even consider the poverty of other men whom they don't even know.
