How about a surprising cure for tech support?

But that's socialism.

Money solves problems?

Unpossible

Hmmm...who knew that making money was a way out of poverty and social injustice?

Ok, after RTFA - Capitalism FTW.

Thread over, and we have a winner ladies and gentlemen.

India is such a massive clusterfark(the whole post-colonial situation in that region for that matter) its amazing its a country at all.

Hooray, India! You're on the way to joining the 19^th century!

It's just like the poor in the US. They will buy gold jewelry and expensive designer clothing instead of investing in themselves with vocational training and education. I have no sympathy for them.

Money just does the needful.

And if they suddenly stop doing that, then what? Well the upper class will suddenly shiite themselves and watch as the almost the entire "lower caste" shoot up to upper-middle class in a generation or two. America has been through this (and fell again). I would love to see on the street the reaction of most of the populace over the next decade or so as this progresses. Should make for some interesting news.

Dammit, I will hate them for something they have only done in my head! Nice troll.

Anyone interested in the Indian social situation, watch a recent film called "Amal". Entertaining and enlightening especially if one has never been to India (I haven't).

ABBA had a song about this.

Remove all Republicans: What a crock. What is going to save India's poor is the same thing that helped African-Americans in this country: massive government subsidies through affirmative action programs. Without those kinds of programs, I doubt this country would ever have seen an African-American president.

On the off chance you're not a troll...

How this still exists in this day and age is mind-boggling. Why don't they rise up? OK, if you can't do violence, how about strike and protest? Or demonstrate? Hunger strike.
