Hick...!!!

I've been noticing one trend in India for the last few years,or maybe for the last decade. Maybe you've noticed it too...the liquid money is getting more and more pooled away from where it should belong..the hands of the commoner. Newer and smarter methods are being brained out everyday to fool the people and polarize the money towards the rich. Governments and corporates alike,are busy playing this new game.
And there's this irresistible urge among our ministers to make a USA out of India. They seem to capitalize everything,make roads into every corner of the country,even at places,where it means only disaster,and let the automobile giants fool the people at a time,when the rest of the world is shunning gasloine and fighting hard to find some alternative. Then there come the SEZs. Perfect tools for snatching away the last bit of food from the mouth of the poor.
Ok,nothing to worry really..India's shining after all..our bull's showing an over 6% growth rate..one of the fastest in the world!! We are growing rich,but alas,at our own expense. Why don't we understand our government is all set to make this country rich by taking money from the hands OF the country. What is the meaning flashing a GDP when it's earned by mostly less than 5% of our people? What's the use pooling money when the real users can't use it? I really can't bear the sight of all the poor around,espacially staying in Uttar Pradesh,where I really don't know when the real poor here will benefit from their governance. Interestingly enough,all these poor people are very happy..happy with their life,with whatever they have,with whatever the government throws on them.
Hey,but again,nothing to worry!! We ARE growing rich and classy!! People now talk of eating out at weekends,shopping,going places (thaks to easy loans),unable to choose from the huge variety of chic gadgets in the market,and what not!! Now drinking and discos are a social thing( even i say dancing IS a great stress buster,I dance myself,but why do we get that stressed up when we can easily avoid them). Really,our luxuries of one time are becoming our necessities...much to thank the ad industry and its awesome brainpower,and us,the on-the -top-of-the-world-going-nowhere Indian (upper?)middle class. All we love doing is showing off our love for West without really internalizing their real work-hard-party-harder nature. There are of course exceptions and their numbers are increasing.
Let's turn back to the poor. Everyday we read about (ok,these are the extreme cases) farmer suicides,people fighting over water,people killing each other just for 50 rupees,lack of education,and I fear the list will go long enough to bore down even the greatest enthusiasts. It's not that the government doesn't do anything. Huge funds are allotted every year and huge moneys get buried,every year. I ask just one question,why this inequity? Even after 60 years of independence,why so much of dissatisfaction? Why is there no distribution of wealth?
Throwing up questions again,bad boy I am!!
