Immigration is in the news.. and how people from poor countries and societies move to richer countries to make a better life.. I come from India where many folks do dream of the same - although the educated may as well stay back and earn well - I have not been able to understand the rush and the passion to escape. Why are humans so prone to escaping difficulties as opposed to facing.. fighting and trouncing them!! This one difference - escaping vs fighting - may as well be the most distinguishing characteristic that makes someone rich and someone poor! If you want to take your destiny in your hands and fight to change the environment however bad it is!http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41702000/jpg/_41702854_barbados203_ap.jpg
