Theo, Regardless on the difference in our opinion on how it started or what fueled it, it is there and will be there for a while. Lets keep that argument aside. I want to comment on your statements > There is a big class difference in our society > The second part is why there is two classes in our society? Please tell me of a society, a community or a country where classes do not exist. Classes are formed naturally in any society based on the understanding and beliefs of that society. There is no such thing as classless, it does not exist. Take any communist country, republic country or democratic country there will always be a superior ruling class, a privileged one, who will be ahead of the rest of the classes. Please do not take my statements as I advocate the class system in Nepal or I advocate the people that oppressors rather I am pointing the fact of any society that there will always be people who will employ others to do their house work. For example if you have someone working for your family in your house obviously you have to pay them and this makes you the employer or the oppressor because you pay him so little for so much of the work that he has to do. The idea of oppressor and oppressed depends on how you look at it. Having said that I want to retriate that I am against some corrupt traditional practices that plague our villages. A lender lends money in such high interest rates that the person looses everything. This is due to lack of education. I am sure there are other practices that I do not know about, oh there is one I hate is class discrimination. Lets leave the evils of our society for a while and see if its eradication is possible, all together. We also have to accept the fact that we are an underdeveloped nation -in an underdeveloped geographical region. Sure this will change as India's GDP is growing so is China's it will take time to change our GDP but not until this insurgency is quelled. Once the GDP goes up in Nepal the differences in classes will slowly disappear. Level of living standard will rise and cease the difference in classes that is apparent now. my .02 cents
