it is useless to compare AMERICAN & INDIAN social life. In other way in India 70 to 80 % of people are struggling to meet basic requirement of ROTI KAPDA aur MAKAN. Most of the farmers are working beyond age of 70. If you compare Avaradge Americam, he is far happier that Avarade Indian at least in materialistic worrld. Why there are endless ques to get visa for us, uk etc.There is nothing wrong to copy good things from others if they are useful for human beings in good way.
