there are so many ways to hustle and make money in these countries without screwing people over. buying produce from farmers and then carting them into the center for sale. no taxes paid no permits or business license required. slinging tea or coffee from the back of a bicycle from 8am to 11am. sitting on a street corner with your motorbike and saying “hey you where you go” hoping to give rides to tourist going to their hotels. literally working in any restaurant or factory doing anything.
these are countries of low pay and a low standard of living, but also a low cost for food and housing an extremely high rate of employment.

Don’t know which country you’re talking about because that doesn’t sound like India that I grew up and live in.

Its just a story so they can rationalize the situation in their mind. We all tell stories like that to ourselves, just differently.
