sheldonmer on 17 Nov 14I wanted to share this article because it is a story about the aftermath of the Egyptian Revolution. It talks about how tensions between classes is are becoming stronger due to the failing state. It discusses how many middle class Egyptians are forced to pay fees for things they do not want. One example it gives is that a mother who goes to the hospital for birth must pay tips to all people working at the hospital at time of birth, regardless if they helped you give birth or not. This article goes on to discuss many socioeconomic structure problems and how they are adding strain to Egypt.
