This new middle class is demanding access to clean water, clothing, TVs, health care, housing, food … you name it. McKinsey Global Institute calls the rise of this new middle class ‘the biggest growth opportunity in the history of capitalism … an economic force that’s over 1,000 times as big as the Industrial Revolution.'”
