Yeah, I know that I should stop picking on random people on the net and argue with more substantive points, but…
But the Indian farmers who refuse to give up their land – and thwarted plans to build the world’s cheapest car in West Bengal — know one thing. As long as they have their land, their fate depends on the weather and the harvest. Once they leave their land, they face even greater uncertainties — from the job market to the world economy. Just like Singaporeans today. (Abhijit)

Someone was saying something about being too busy for policy discussion 🙂
Actually, not anymore. The women of the house have banished me from the bedroom and as much as I try to be an involved dad by rushing to change nappies, they don’t let me in, on the grounds that I have a cold and I will infect my son. So I am jobless and have only the laptop for company.
tat wud make certain starvation better than uncertain poverty…
