India Ink is proudly reporting that the real estate in the slums of Mumbai are fetching as handsome a sum as $58,000. In not sure if the description of the filth, swill, garbage and kitchen scraps being piled right outside the doors of these dwellings is to encourage competitive offers from the global masses, but YUCK! Dude really? no one in this community can come together to find solutions like a common dumping ground or something? The government over there is not under global scrutiny for deplorable illness encouraging conditions while we pump 1.5 Billion Dollars into their economy for free and thousands of American children go to bed hungry in each county here at home?

The only good idea' I could come up with was to send the 99% to the slums of India to protest the government's obvious blatant ignorance and neglect of duty.
God help us all. There is truly nothing ANONYMOUS
