The reason you are getting downvoted is because you come across as fault pointer at a successful event. Yes, India needs more private sector participation. It has been divesting like crazy but more the better. There's lots of groundwor

Fiction is not detached from reality. Authors who write fiction base it on their experiences, studies, believes. Grounded in, taken from and influenced by bigger forces of religion, social decorums, culture. Amplified to an unrealistic dime

It's a wishful thinking. If anything, people are worst money managers. Free money will simply be used to turn on pleasure centers. Ofcourse, there will be many who will channel the money wisely (80:20). But if argument is that basic in

I get you. I am definitely not in the camp of central provisioning of food. But how's that different from BI? BI is pretty much central provisioning of resources. Yes it's money. But that money translates to resources. That's

If you can establish a business around this, that would be great. But personal assistants are more than just money and skills. There's lots of trust involved created over the years. I think people would be more comfortable if this was

How so? So Trump can aggressively address a nuclear armed country. This is ridiculous line of thinking. Only thing he will be good for is making empty threats like Kim Jong. And will surely get US isolated by those rhetorics.

I don't think growth issues in EU are due to more vacations. Tbh, we need lesser work hours and days to pass automation gains to workers.

Look at the economies with no to shallow banking systems. High and predatory interest rates, less money available for loans is least of their problems. No banking, no economy. Bitcoin solves the problem about inflation, access to money etc.
