we are turning into communist nut-jobs.
Thanks to the gandhi family and congress.
gandhi family were lead in forming the congress party which was formed under british rule to support british
indra gandhi declared an emergency and edited the constituent of india(made us socialist)
*gandhi brought u features like
no more than 20 SMS per mobile
no more cars below 16 liter/KM average
10^32 scams
a shitty budget that gives average family 1000Rs off on income tax while increasing taxes on corporations by a factor of 2
free mobile phones for poor(lol)
the biggest mid day meal till date(billions Rs spend)
....I can go on all day
I am a native Bangalorean. And from what I know of history our state. Close 99.99% of IT growth work you see today was the work of Deve Gowda(JD-S) and SM Krishna(Congress). On top of that biggest projects were conceived under Congress- IT Park constructions, Bangalore Metro etc.
Not a single thing has happened under BJP. The biggest scam in Karnataka's history mining scam happened and was done by BJP MLAs.
Avoid venting your political opinions here. like 'intended' user mentioned rationally there is hardly a party in India which isn't corrupt.
rationally trying to describe the shit ideas of the congress(gandhi family) while the stupid UI at ycombinator does not add \n after I press enter.
the ideology that thinks the nation is before the single individual, will not think twice adding stupid restriction like those mentioned by "Christopher Soghoian".
the ideology is like this:
since they care(as shown by providing free mobiles to poor etc..) they have a right to act like parents and impose such violation of personal rights.
the thinking foundation itself is wrong.
The same thought that imposes ban of cars above 16 km/liter average (ie Ferrari will never show its face in India)is responsible such stupid laws.
The same thought that created ibfindia which is now censoring simple words "menstrual" on TV because they think its their job to care what enters my ear is responsible for such stupid laws.
congress is like a physco slut girl friend of every Indian
Wow, several new profiles of 3 hours or less on HN, and ALL have terrible posts.
I think HN got linked somewhere.
For people unaware -
Bashing the Gandhi family and Congress is a common past time, but beyond that it gets split across people 2 factions which are rife with, if not build directly out of, hate/venom/ideologies.
Its sort of the Republicans vs Democrats, with less long term ideals and more unalloyed hate.
Ask either side for data or logic and they usually can't get too far. If they do, they have their own skewed interpretations of what happened.
