I have a question

On TA.

So, how many people that post here live in countries that have a huge poverty rate?

How do they have internet?

Possibly, internet cafe, yes?

Or they are rich enough to have internet and piss on the poor.

i live in one, but have my own internets.

I live in Knakkakistan. We do not have any possession. One day an alien spaceship crashed into our mountains. There where lots of cyberspace items stored in it.

From that day some of us had an item we called the space-machine which made us able to connect to the internet.

So far.

I think a lot of countries have cities where they are rich, upper class people so they have the internet while out in the rural areas of the same country theres people that probably live on less than a dollar a day.

I'm not talking about that.

I want to see who was born and raised in that country, and how they are able to use the internets.

Well, when your country has a 100%tax on everything you gotta be rich.

I was hoping to get an idea of what these people's thoughts are about the poverty and what they do about it.

The first post was to piss them off.

they probably wait for us to send them 25 cents a day

Hardly a suitable forum to post if you are looking for serious replies.

I was born and brought up in India. I have a home in Bombay and we have a pretty fast cable internet connection.

I believe a lot of people use slow dialups, although I don't know the current situation since I am now living in the US.
