minus-squareshackled@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-27 months agoI’ve been to a few countries and grew up in a third world country. I have never seen a wealth divide as massive and as blatantly on display as I did in India.
minus-squareTVgog56789OPlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·7 months agoYes. Even if India becomes the largest economy by GDP What is the point when per capita income rank is 136 and HDI rank at 134.
