In India they have this thing called a caste system. This system is a traditional fixed class system, meaning you can't go up or down in class, you are just born into one. For anyone who decides they are too good for their class standards, there is a class below zero, making someone subhuman. They are the untouchables. They can't wear shoes when they cross the path of anyone in a higher class than them (hich is everyone in India save for about 20 million or so other untouchables). They can't drink water from clean wells. They have government appointed jobs such as cleaning out public restrooms with their bare hands (there aren't toilets, if you're wondering), sweeping the streets with brooms, and collecting garbage by hand. Their children are also untouchables. They get no medical treatment because doctors are of a higher class and cannot touch them. These people aren't allowed in temples and even their shadows cannot touch the walls of temples. People spit on and hit them with sticks and rocks when they walk by. I know this is only relevant to one country, but it does have the second largest population on the planet and the point is that sometimes you can't do a god damn thing about being poor.

davis, who gives a damn about india? i dont want to go there, i dont have friends of family there, i dont plan on doing business there, i dont care about their country, relegion, shitty subhuman animal people, or anything. if india fell off the face of the earth tomorow, i wouldent lose any sleep- but good point. obviously both you and nick are strong liberals, and ovbiously an argument between us will go nowhere, because ovbiously, myself, and the majority of americans, are right and you are wrong.
