Profit generated by a country like a pie with fixed size (for a given period of past time). If the rich get more shares, the poor will obviously get less. A simple math for primary school students.
Excessive richness in a poor country does mean that the rich loot the poor. The looting is soft, in a legal format that is endorsed by the rich in a democratic/dictating way. In the same sense, inheritance is inherited blood squeezed by his/her previous generations from the poor. Nothing to pride of.
Per topic, for India, a country has per capita GDP less than half that of China, but has more billionaires than Japan that has per capita GDP 12 more times than your country (PPP). Don’t you smell something odd? In addition, Japan has literacy, infant mortality, life expectancy, … that are all far more superior to that of your country. This is my justification for Indian billionaires to feel shameful (but not as much for the Japanese billionaires). Of course, “shame” has no effect for shameless people.
I agree with some of your comments on USA. For instance, US billionaires are also looting from the poor legally. Recent financial crisis is an example. But should those shameful deeds justify or dilute any your shamefulness? BTW, this is off topic.
Yes I accept you ,We dont have health care,Education etc... . Now if you are happy enough , just read my questions again and try to think a little.
In India we all get our chance to become rich. If you talk about Ambani family , Go and read his history , you will get to know how he suffered and succeeded his life . India produces more entrepreneurs , Obviously every one gets their chance and a few succeed .
Statistics is not the only thing to prove much to you. I can assure you even Government of India cannot get correct statistics about our people . Let me give an example , If you don't know Mumbai Tharavi, its the largest slum in Asia. So if you come to conclusion that all those in slum are very poor struggling for their food, But change your mind , If you visit the slum you find lot of houses having rooms attached with Air Conditioners(Its a luxury in India) .I am sure you would have got a question now in your mind then why these people are there in slum . Thats what India is , you cannot understand.
We are in a competitive country and Ambani's are not rich because their fathers are Maharajas. I am proud that my country gives an opportunity such a small "worker" like Ambani to top the world billionaire list. Yes I agree with you that poor people got less of our wealth , But so what ? If you want to be rich ,become rich .Our country gives chance to all people its you to compete not the government. Not only Ambani, List has many more people , Kiran Majumdhar Shaw a woman started business with 200 $s made her company to cross the 1Bn$ revenue . I dont know about US or China. India is very much competitive, If Mukesh Ambani is not skill full enough there are hundreds of "Ambanis" Standing beside to take over him.
This billionaire list is not complete and every year this list will include more people than what you think.
Most of these billionaires have succeeded from a very low level of their life to this level.Indian Market is huge than what you imagine . I know that your media has convinced you enough that we are just rats but thats not true .
Indian GDP by PPP is 4th in the world. You can make a huge money from this huge market.Again I would like to stress in India if you try to do things with statistics you fail .
You want one more example why I told statistics are wrong ? , google for "Country ranks by gold imports" . I think that would convince you that India not only has beggars. (Come on man, we have no billionaires doing gold business and In India all business men have a habit of not investing much money in gold just wanted to tell you if your imagination goes to 'all billionaires of India are building a golden mountain' ) , You can also search for gold stocking by people of India .
