    Similar stories aren’t new in India, at the same time if we were to take a sample of one billion people from richer countries I’m pretty sure we would be able to find just as many similar stories, they would just come from different countries.

        600 000 child are abused each year just in the USA.

        Gun violence is the leading cause of children death in the USA with more than six a day being homicides.

        So with just over a third of a billion we already have enough headlines to make India look no worse than richer countries…

          Yeah but ye are a joke.

          Hardly a developed nation outside of billionaire population and pageantry

            I’m not from the USA, but ok…

            The education level of the USA is still much higher than in India and there’s less inequality…

                I’ve been talking using we from the beginning as I’m talking about if we collectively took the time to compare to other richer countries amounting to as much population, I’m pretty sure India wouldn’t look as bad as it does now…
