    • exceptional food
    • cheap workforce (the next major factory of world after China is becoming “too expensive” and competitive)
    • hinduism
    • religious segration
    • caste system
    • extreme poverty and extreme wealth
    • racist towards dark skinned people (also due to caste)
    • anti-queer
    • lots of potential, but also among world leaders in corruption
    • hot
    • noisy, polluted cities
    • very influenced by external forces

  • You didn’t ask to be born there, but you don’t have to belong to the group of Americans that consume without any regard.

    Also, how is knowingly buying products from anti-union companies a “leap of logic”? Do you even know what that means? You don’t need to buy Apple products to function in society, nor do you need Starbucks products, nor do you have to use Amazon. There are small local retailers you can support, as well as fair trade products, second hand goods you can purchase, and a lot more.
