- Kaiyou 7y agoThe US doesn't have a perception problem with poverty. It has the image of a rich country where lots of stuff comes from. Like Google, Microsoft etc. India is perceived as a third world country, where people shit in the streets because they lack the infrastructure for even toilets. Whether this is true or not doesn't change the perception of these things. If a country that is perceived like India starts a space program, eyebrows will raise.
- mav3rick 7y agoI am glad govt.'s don't work on perception. Also, the US' perception is also one of racism, poverty in Southern states. Doesn't mean it abandon its myriad programs in space and healthcare.
