How to tell how bad touts are for a given country?
When I was in India last year I was surprised at the persistence of "touts" (any person who solicits business or employment in a persistent and annoying manner).
It has been suggested to me that touts are present in Mexico and Egypt, as well, altho I've never been to either myself.
Anyway, is there a good rule of thumb I could use for determining how bad touts are for any given country? Maybe the higher the Gini coefficient the worse the touting problem is going to be? Altho I note that according to wikipedia the Gini coefficient for the US is higher than it is for India..
