Certainly, the issues are indeed valid for them and nothing to be scoffed at.
What is fascinating about India of my growing up years was that most of the scarcity was artificial, mostly due to government regulations and policies. So money didn't speed up things in a big way. But all that has changed unrecognisably now. Now, if one has money there's almost nothing that can't be gotten.
