Rank #1: India Rising.
The global middle class is expected to swell by more than 1 billion people over the next decade, with the biggest increases in China and India.

NOW reports from Pune, India, where college graduates are getting tech jobs, traditional families are flocking to the new mall, and professionals are hoping their new-found economic might will make their country an even bigger global player. But can America's middle-class -- and the rest of the world -- afford this unprecedented shift in the global economy? The world is buying like never before, but who's paying the price?
