Why did the passengers not rush to fill the lifeboats on the titanic?

Because the people running the ship were all like, we gonna lock you in the lower decks and not give you the key because we like the rich people better and they deserve to live more than you. All the poor people on the lower decks died.

How many passengers were in the titanic?

A great gallery of characters from the highest to the humblest - which is part of the appeal of the story. Some of the richest people in England And America were on-board. Also many middle-class people who aspired to rub shoulders with these. And of course, poor emigrants in the 3rd class - who apparently commented that it was more comfortable than they were expecting.


Is everyone poor in India?

Not at all. However, the spread between rich and poor is much more pronounced. In the USA or UK or Canada, there are rich people and poor people but generally the rich are reasonably rich and the poor still usually have a roof over their heads, or, even if homeless, are able not to starve because of a welfare state. However, in India the rich tend to be very very rich, whilst the poor are very very poor - and there are a lot more poor people than in western countries, so, on average, India can be thought of as a poor country although there are many living there who are very rich.

There are more poor people in China than rich people. There might be as many as 500,000 poor people for every "rich" person. China, with a population of MORE than one billion people {1,000,000,000}, has a very skewed wealth distribution. Most countries have more poor people than rich. The only way rich people are able to become rich is by suppressing the poor.
