If only someone told them (the very few who actually agree with the Thackeray clan of Politics) that Bombay is not a Well of Money waiting for the inhabitants to draw from it. This is a city with oppurtunities like many others. Wealth here needs to be created. What seems like a well of money is only the result of sweat (and inequity) – drive away the sweat and the money shall be gone.
Did these people never hear about the story of the hen that laid golden eggs!
Another point – why all the attention to Raj Thackeray? Shiv Sena had raised this issue time and again. And no local politician from Maharashtra has ever condemned it. This is a vote issue boys. Forget about it. There are enough cities in the country – if they drive Bombay to that.
totally agree man… i guess they need to Solve the issue by really getting to the problem of slums and not by beating up random people… its stupid…
I couldn’t agree anymore. What civilization has come to sends shivers down the spine of patriotic citizens like me; but it also sends some laughing on their way to the bank, to collect cash, votes and blood. All of which are deposited by the foolish people of this great country ridden with misfortune. I have always been puzzled about why the people who understand that there are sections of the society who are unemployed and ahem! Choose to be unemployed untill some Politicians come by and offer them some petty cash enough to buy more drugs and alcohol and if any remains, some bread, are actually the ones who claim to be affected by the divide, the kind that is imaginative, a figment of some creep’s imagination. The people who understand this should rise up to the occasion and shunt these voices into obscurity which is where they belong. It is so frivilous an issue that politicians rake up and what follows is nothing but the result of their “wet dreams”. A mad bunch of people taking to the streets and beating up strangers and people who they sat and ate with, destroying property but at the sametime being careful so that they don’t smash their own (If they do miraculously manage to conjure some up). Today an Isolated liberal Indian like me feels like an alien in my own homeland, wherever people like me go, we shall always feel like an outsider, this is only because we as the worlds largest democracy have allowed our leaders to draw up lines and create differences right in here in our backyard. Disgusting and shameful!!
