Why Indians don’t give back to society
Some characteristics unite Indians. The most visible is our opportunism

C’mon, you cannot generalize this thing as an Indian phenomenon … “we Indians” need policing to be disciplined is such a shallow statement…because there is nothing “Indian” about this phenomenon...this is every human’s tendency. If you think west is self-disciplined and all…it is all crap. You can always see that the exorbitant fines for every single rule broken are the ONLY deterrent for US (insert any other developed country) folks too…infact, I saw “policing” in its true sense only in US for the first time…They have 100 times more rules and 100 times more police ..and more importantly for 1/100th of the population there!! So for example, even minor deviations from traffic rules can have very serious repercussions…your rating goes down, you wont get insurance, etc etc.. So, my point is that you cannot say “Indians need policing” and “Indians don't give back”…it ain’t that simple!
