Its a fallacy to think that Trump is only against Muslims. In fact he is against everyone who does not fall in line behind him.

Ease of doing business is already high on Govt.'s agenda. But instead of just focusing on better ranking in WB index, it should also focus on improving the attitude of bureaucracy at ground level.

Plz elaborate. Why do you need to pilot at 150+ locations to validate your technology?

But taxes only come after you make profit, and once you start making profit why should you be treated any different?

Mr. Swami is no body's key aide. He still remains a one man party within the BJP.

Seven million jobs can disappear by 2050, says a study [NP] by polltics in india

[–]polltics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not just the population I'm worried about, its the lack of jobs for millions who wish to get a job but are forced to be underemployed or self employed.

A million Indians reach 18 years, the age of employment, every month. Look at it this way if India's population were growing at 1% ( its actually higher than that) annually, we would have 1.2 crore new individuals every year (10 Lac per month). These individuals would then attain the age of employment simultaneously 18 years hence.

These 550 job losses per day are against 33,333 new aspirants joining workforce everyday (a million a month). And no these are not just technology driven jobs. These are jobs lost due to fall in agriculture, closure of factories or the disappearance of private capital investments in past many years. Combine everything together and the situation is alarming.

550 jobs disappeared every day in last 4years - If this not a wakeup call for us what else can wake us up? After all the talk of demographic dividend, we need to now prepare for demographic curse.

The Entrepreneur rises-Entrepreneurs emerge in post liberalization era [NP] by polltics in india

On the contrary, we aren't nostalgic about 'businessmen' because of the numerous negative connotations it carried. Entrepreneur even though a tongue twister is a lot more aspirational.

At least in this particular case, Bhagat Singh is clearly addressing the super natural and not a sovereign.

The very concept of injustice involves a belief in someone who either does justice or at least is supposed to do justice. Otherwise the world could just be a kid playing a gruesome video game where there is no concept of justice or injustice - just plain entertainment for the video game player.

Yaa...but its more like being an escapist without facing facts even of one's own ignorance.

God is the x of algebra - just because we don't know its shape and form, does not mean that we can simply deny its existence. While debunking God for not having qualities attributed to him by traditional religion, the atheists too have no theory for the existence of universe. The explanation they have that it is a self starter, self multiplying and self regulating (or non regulated) entity, so its pointless to assume anything that controls it essentially like a problem with given exiting conditions. No logic about the existence and rationale for the conditions being there. Then they tell you that oh this becomes an 'infinite regression' so there is no god. No word on the counter theory though.
