> No one, not even beggars on Indian streets keep their cash beneath their mattress these days.
That was my point. A point that I think went over your head. Maybe I need to dumb down my language more?
> people and their round-corner-barber-shop level discussions on how their random hacks and their political heroes will go around fixing everything.
The success of a democracy depends on these barber-shop level discussions. Any working democracy should be proud of the fact that normal people discuss and have their own political views. Democracy is born from the bottom, not handed down from the top by the ever changing and confusing whims of a failed dynast.
> Who think their barely held together theories, which won't survive 5 why questions in a stretch, should be forced implemented and others be made to suffer through it as a test of patriotism.

> Demonetization was a devastating failure for one simple reason. Tax accountability is one thing. Capital is a totally different concept.
What is difficult to understand? Demonetization cannot be a failure on tax accountability or capital because it was never intended for this. It was to make a purely political point and it made that very clear to the people. The GST reforms are the reforms for the tax system. Not demonetization.
