Government has crossed all limits permitted by even 5th grade economics.

A little amount of FDI in certain sctors is a good thing but by taking FDI to current extremes, this government has crossed all limits permitted by even 5th grade economics. 1) Only 6% of Indians are in permanent jobs. 51% self employed, 33% temp jobs & 10% unemployed. FDI in retail may affect self employed badly. 2) Major chunk of FDI is the Black money of our nation brought back through participatory notes. Opportunists like Mayawati voted in support of FDI in the parliam ent, after opposing it at UP. Her excuse? "To keep communal forces away"! 3) upto 100% FDI is now allowed in telecom (to help Marxis and Maran). Same in air travel to help Jet ( http://www.firstpost.com/business/etihad-deal-reaches-cbi-after-bjp-mp-alleges-fdi-policy-changed-in-jets-favour-941719.html ) 4) They allowed Rupee to fall first and then let FDI give large gains to Foreign Investors from US/EU.

What is truth?

What is truth? "The non-existent has no existence; the existent does not not-exist. (Thus) the seers who have seen the essence of That reached the conclusion about the two." - The Bhagavadgita 2:16. "It is neither born nor dies. At no time it did not non-exist in the past; will not non-exist in future; or will not become existence again. Unborn, eternal, permanent, and the most ancient, this is  not killed when the body is killed." - The Bhagavadgita 2:20. According to science, truth is what is provable either with logic or with facts or both. If you say something happened and if you witnessed it, you must be in a position to prove it even to those who did not see it. Even though it seems straightforward, in many cases it is not.

You are also lucky if you are able to prove your scientific truths, because there are many truths
