I was here first: Why don't people in some countries form neat, orderly lines? {Gadling}

Aug 22nd 2008 11:20AM I am not if this has to do with the law per se, and it is a big deal with regard to the fact that it is a big deal.
However, being a country like India with over a billion people, I have seen the good and the bad side. The main issue is when one realizes that no one is going to recognize them, they tend to cut lines. Why is it important for no one to know them. The answer is decency. In other countries, people are decent to everyone. IN my country, you are decent to the ones you know. As far as the rest, may they damn in hell.
The other side is when over and over again, when people have cut lines and it has been sub optimal, then over time they realize that it is not worth it and the lines begin. The best case in example is the Mumbai Suburban rail queues.
