Yeah Right! The rest of the world is taking care of India's problems. Which world do you live in?

>As long as all the leadership in India and many other nations have the easy option of just dumping all their problems on the rest of the world>

Sounds like Mexico more than any other place -

As long as all the leadership in XYZ and many other nations have the easy option of just dumping all their problems on the rest of the world then there will NEVER be any internal reform to improve the life of your people in India. Your elites there want to keep things in the state of semi-disaster to keep wages low and allow them to have many servants and to maintain the upper class high style of living. If poverty couldn't simply be exported to other places a revolution would result and reforms would occur, with the masses of the XYZ people benefitting. As long as the present state of affairs is allowed to continue there is no incentive to reform your country.

Slag, now you are going off the deep end. For a start, you use the word "never" much too much for human affairs. Never is about as long as it takes the next generation to get to age 20. And very often a lot less. A week is a long time in politics and things can turn on a dime in human affairs. A political idea can catch on and away it goes. "Sieg Heil" became a very popular call in Germany over a few short years, for example. Hutus decided tutsis could be dealt with effectively in a lot less time than it takes to get to "never". Singapore went from a sleepy, grotty little backwater to a spendid example of The Truman Show in action in a very modern city. Japan was a destroyed militaristic empire of cruelty and became a spectacularly successful first world country in much less than "never", less than a lifetime and in only 40 years became pre-eminent.

That's laughable to think the leadership in India is keeping the place poor deliberately. It's ignorance and conflicting political interests which has people voting for poverty decade after decade while celebraring independence from the best source of wealth they have ever had [though ever is a long time too and that might be stretching a point] and one could argue that the vast population is the most spectacular creation of wealth in 50 years in human history. Imagine how many kilograms of high performance intellect have been produced in that seething horde of humanity.

That's absurd. One could make the same argument here in NZ and in most countries around the world. We are going down the gurgler due to ignorance of the electorate and unmitigated greed of the bludgers. People voting and those running the place don't understand what makes a good place with wealth oozing from the seams.
