What are the Western countries trying to propagate to the East?
America is very keen to export its McDonald and coco-cola culture all over the world, the culture that has turned at least 30% of its people obese and more than 50% overweight.

In the UK binge drinking at night has now be- come a social evil so much so that the police are spending $3.00 billion dollars simply to maintain order in towns and cities and to treat those affected in various ways by this habit it is costing the National Health Service
another $13.00 billion dollars. The rate of violent crime has increased by 12% and the Government is constructing more prisons. In a population of about 66 million in the UK there are more than 2.5 millions single parent families, a very significant proportion of which are young
teenage girls. At least 40% of all marriages end up in divorce within the first year of the marriage. The overall divorce rate could be anything up to 70%. After divorce children become commodities or merchandise to be shared between the parents and court battle fought over who
will get how much. Many of these unfortunate children end up in care homes. In Europe the situation is not as bad as it is in the UK but the problem is on the rise. This is only a small sample of what the western society is like now.
Surely this is not the culture Indians should copy from the West. It is true there are some social problems in India. The solution is to reform them, not to copy the worst habits of the westerners.
