My path

Lots have already been talked about in this blog about Greatness of mankind. Probably no longer required to underline that again...

But 1 question.... are we really great?????

We have created farms which fill our granries... but millions still starve... we have costumes which enable us to endure extremes of moon... but people die of cold of Delhi and heat of UP..... We create great sky scrappers but still Salman Khan crushes ppl sleeping on roads... We can exchange hearts but ppl still die of small diseases like fever....

We all agree uptil now... And then we say .. bad... but we need to accept reality... this is how it is supposed to be... And here I differ.... We were not supposed to fly... but we did... We were not supposed to go to ocean beds... we did... We were not supposed to go to moon,.. we did.... Then why not this....

This is what is greatness of mankind....

Now the question how.....

I have no lost love for Communism or Politicians whose speech may also feature all these.... "Aam Admi..." new name for people...

Development is more communist than communism.. Growth results in equlity of opportunity thru:
1. Creation of more and more resources to increse scale of production leading to reduction of cost per item and thus make it more accessible to people.
2. Provide opportunities of economic well being to people directly or indirectly connected with them...

Example is no more than my recent encounter with a Auto wallah... He asked me how much did it cost me for the flight from Kolkata to Bangalore.. I said 2500 bucks..... He asked me abt the flight... whether there are TVs in each seat, abt air hostesses [;)] and others...

Then he told me he wont travel in Deccan but King Fisher which costs 5000 bucks but there are TVs in each seat and gud Air Hostesses. I was amazed.... Not because a Auto wallah prefers more comfortable journey over cheap one. But by the fact that a Autowallah today has resources to access this when it cudnt have been thought about a decde ago...

This is what is really called development... Development doesnt lie in increasing GDP or improving million other statistics... But lies in how many people reach at a level where they can access all facilities or those facilities which help them living a better life.... And that doesnt come from rationing... But comes from creating a level field....

But still large dark corners lies in India and this world and that is where I need to go with the lamp... That is the path I have decide to take... To do my bit of manly thing....
