I doubt it. State whatever razor about incompetence vs malice.

My dad always wanted to move back home after he retired; talked about it a lot. After my mom passed, he had flown back and told me the air was unfit to breath, the water unsafe to drink and a flat near his brother would be $4m USD in Delhi. My sister visited a few years later and said dad was exaggerating and it wasn't that bad, but I think she overlooks the severity of some things.

India is a state rife with corruption; an entire nation of "contractor" work ethic where every step forward in infrastructure is piled upon decades of technical debt. If you want to see a democratic nation with no singular cultural identity and failing infrastructure, one only needs to look at India. If you walk through the halls of Red Fort and see the ancient weaponry, architecture, you see what it could have been juxtaposed to the receding and horrifically polluted Ganges river.

Americans don't realize this is what could easily happen to our infrastructure if the growing corruption in our federal and state authorities isn't reigned in.
