I don't want to downplay this because these conditions are terrible.

But I once worked in India for 3 months, in Mumbai, and I can tell you that on a global scale, this is nothing.

My commute in the morning consisted of driving, for 1 HOUR, through the largest slum in the world. 20 kilometers on a side big.

So while its terrible that this exists in Silicon Valley, on a global scale we have much bigger problems.

For me, that's the biggest reason I hope Bill Gates keeps on doing what he's doing.
