The system is actually very insensitive towards such people and guess what? When these people struggle hard, clear all test - they go for robbing the nation with corruption and their justification for that has always been "when I was struggling and poor, no one came to my rescue now it's my turn and I deserve all the money accured through corruption" and it creates more poverty.
Poor people don't study to join Google or Facebook in India. They study for government jobs like customs officer, railway officer, Indian adminstrative service, Indian Police Service etc... all jobs where you can accure vast sums of money.
The amount of money these officers make offrecord is going to eyewater even westerners. In some cases, the wealth they posses rival even high end executives at Google and Facebook.
Most people understand and acknowledge this system. They know the only way to out is through it, they stay in system - stay hard, make connections then proceed to benefit from corrupt system.
