Mumbai Contrasted w/ America's Spoiled College Students

In Mumbai, most residents get 1.5 h of running water at 4am or less, sometimes having to walk several miles to compete w/ others for 10 min. of water per day, while the wealthiest resident (worth $27B) uses 400,000 L of water every month, much of which goes to water his hydroponic gardens. If the Occupy Wall St. protesters saw this, I believe they'd stop griping when many of them can afford iPads & iPhones (& probably all have access to plenty clean drinking water throughout the day yet somehow fail to shower frequently enough).
