Why do you feel the US is better in this respect? The US has several other obvious advantages compared to India, but equality of wealth distribution and lack of crony capitalism don't seem to be among them.

You think the US has wealth inequality! In India its common for upper middle class people to have several full-time servents. Not only that, they are a whole separate class of people. They are treated like servents, not like employees.

India is far more unequal than the US actually and crony capitalism is also much worse here. I've lived in the US for 8 years and would be bang in the middle class there, I have 3 full time house helps which I couldn't even think about in the US.
