When I came to America last year i was overwhelmed by the amount of choice everywhere. Grocery stores stocked with so much food – it was a complete reverse culture shock coming from India.
I also notice how many homeless people are in NY – I think I see more here than in India. This might be because I am walking the streets rather than being driven around by my Driver (How bad does that sound!)
I always thought India had a massive difference between rich and poor but think it could be just as big here.
Today I read America has 46 million people living under the poverty line ($11,000 for an individual, $22,000 for a family).
That’s jaw dropping.
