India’s elites have a ferocious sense of entitlement

I don't think it's just about money though. There's this entitled class who just fundamentally believe they are superior, the example from the article being the guy who threw over the fruit stall because the crowd wouldn't move.

It's actually a problem in Australia where we all sort of treat each other as equals, for example our hospitality classes won't scrape and bow and call you sir, and everyone is ok with that. Racism has started to emerge because the only Indians who can get to Australia are the rich ones. All it takes is a few bad interactions and people start to write off the entire race, when I'm sure that 99%+ of Indians are actually pretty damn nice people.

I just wonder if those new generations will be less cheap but more entitled than ever.

Wait, you're seriously arguing that Australia didn't have a racism problem until Indians reached there? Australia, where the Government systematically removed Aboriginal kids from their parents in an attempt to wipe out the Aboriginal communities? Where the police can and do still get away with grabbing Aboriginal people off the streets and dumping them in the middle of nowhere to die just for being the wrong race? That Australia?
