Raghvendra, who was present at the Bangalore event (below) sent in this link. I actually agree with 95 per cent of what Bhushan is saying. His description of crony capitalism prevailing in India is spot on. So that's a good start: that both I and he AGREE that the loot of the country has increased […]

Who said this: “the vote of the majority always binds all the rest”?
Obviously, one of the greatest enemies of liberty: Rousseau (Plato and Hegel come close, and Marx is merely a lackey of Hegel). What this interpretation of democracy does is to ENTIRELY DESTROY LIBERTY. It upturns the very purpose of the state through sleight of hand: But it is asked how a man can be both free […]

Humdrum, boring and so very unsexy..
When I think about water, I wonder why this topic does not get more attention. But I guess I should not be surprised.
Water is humdrum; so very unsexy. There is nothing titillating about it. It hardly arouses passion – or gets someone in frenzy. It has zero glamour. Frankly, it is quite boring. […]
Why Shantanu Bhagwat is 100 times better than Arvind Kejriwal
For those who are smitten by the half-baked socialist Arvind Kejriwal (who simply refuses to listen to any sensible idea), here is a leader who is 100 times better. Shantanu, in this video, is explaining why ALL government schools and colleges in India should be privatised. […]
