In all honesty, that was not meant to be mean. Really, do you think Zombies choose between Rich or Poor?

I am an Indian, has lived in US for the past 12 years. Every time I go to India, I am all the more reminded of how the so-called progress has not penetrated in to the lower stratas of the society.

I use public transportation every time I am home, not because I cannot afford to shut out the outside world, but I love watching humanity upclose. To ride in a bus along with 60-70 others, people whose sons I might have gone to school with, finding familiar faces in the crowd, eavesdrop on conversations, and for a moment think of their lives, and their dreams. You cant do that while tucked away in the backseat of a Mercedes.

Class based social racism is a real problem in India. While trying to catch up with their neighbors, we ignore the ones getting pushed deeper and deeper in to the depths of poverty.

Another social equalizer? Education. And the fact that most of its free (regardless of how bad it sometimes can be in India's public schools), I am proud of my country.

I see you are a fast learner as to what sort of comments are appreciated here. You two comments are like the before and after photos for a fad diet plan. Thanks for clarifying, and welcome to HN!
