China's widening wealth gap leaves millions in poverty
China's wealth gap has widened to a level where it is among the world's most unequal nations, a Chinese academic institute said in a survey, as huge numbers of poor are left behind by the economic boom.
Ahhhh the price of progress.......Nice caption .......Those "scavengers" are people......... NBC it is you who are the "scavengers". Looking for the next tragic photograph in which to profit from.
What does this reporting imply? That it was better when all Chinese were equally poor?? More Chinese have been able to leave poverty in a short period of time than the entire population of the United States but its a tragedy because they couldn't everyone out?
