You know, the funny thing is that though Rappleye writes this:
"Those who try to carve out a ‘first world’ existence through private schools luxury hotels satellite television and curtains on their SUVs to block out the putrefying stagnation of Nepal deserve the most blame because they are the ones educated enough to see things clearly."

The sad truth of the matter may be that, most of those that are driving in luxury vehicles in Nepal *want* to, in some ways, see the misery around them. It gives the wealth that they enjoy a whole other meaning when they see that people around them don't even have the basic necessity. I know it's perverse. But I know quite a few people in Kathmandu with that mentallity.
