"The Left promoted militant trade unionism and neglected industry. It drove
away capital from Bengal," asserts Sarkar, who teaches at the Indian
Statistical Institute (ISI). Hostility towards industry, seen as moneybags
out to exploit the toiling masses, has been a cultural reflex in the state.
The imperative of helping the poor, the immorality of an acquisitive life,
and the crassness of pursuing wealth are all themes that have animated
Bengali literature, films, theatre and songs for long. This sensibility has
survived economic liberalisation. Even now, every political plank in Bengal
draws on it.

No greater disaster I find in the ngs than you, dear bundree. Now up your
tail, swing in joy, go eat a banana.

Hello bundree, kya baat, kaisee hoe? 3M wigwam yaad hai, na? Wow, I am
glad that with the few brain cells in your disposal, you did manage to
remember what best to be done to Rajghat. To jog other people's memories,
my brilliant proposal was to turn all the various ghats in Delhi, that are
now a useless waste of real estate, to marvellous shopping, pricey housing,
parks, etc. and also make a terrific waterfront for the Jamunam, ideal for
lovers. Call it the Jaidev promenade. I want a cut for all this wonder and
beauty to happen. That would be mere justice, like finder's fees.
Hopefully the Indians won't be as mean as this harmony creature, and other
such gandians. With that input capital, I will make the world's first
multi-trillion dollar company, through brilliant capitalism, at its very
best. We will shift all manufacturing to the moon and outer space, and mine
asteroids. The whole world will be transformed into a wildlife and fun
park. Men will live in high towers or undergound palaces, and roam in air,
under sea and in space with the same viman. All this, of course, will
naturally in due course, with my new physics outing the law of conservation
of energy, that will lead to the construction of the Internal Force Engine.
Within a mere 20 years... I think I will be alive then. And why not, when I
worked on the basics of the internet search engines, did I think that I and
also many millions will be using them every day?
Cheers, bundree. Up your tail, swing in joy, go eat a banana.

Prodyot Kumar Basu It is true that the 'communists' and their remaining
embodiment in the, so called, left front of West Bengal comprising of the
gang of CPM, CPI, RSP, FB, etc., have been working hard for the last 30
years or so to destroy everything good about West Bengal, almost, turning
the state into a laughing stock in the eyes of rest of the country,
competing with states like Bihar. This left front worked tirelessly to
promote ignorance, illiteracy, dishonesty, utter mediocrity, indiscipline,
irresponsibility, gross violation of the rule of law, and above all
political cronyism in everything they did. Almost all the government
officers have been and still are their political cronies. To add to their
support base, it appears that they turned blind eyes to hundreds and
thousands of illegal immigration from across the eastern borders, illegally
helping them to acquire legal status. In short, the left front has been
enemy number one of the people of West Bengal. I hope that the people of the
state has realized that it is not too late to get rid of this left front
menace and try to restore the old glories that West Bengal was on many
fronts and to enhance it on other fronts. What West Bengal needs is a
visionary leadership with a clear sense of purpose and ability to create the
right strategic plan for the state and implement it successfully. This will
require highly qualified specialists (from within India and abroad) in
different areas, with no party affiliation, to advise the ruling party
leadership to achieve real success in these efforts. But the question
remains, is Miss Mamta Banerjee, who often appears to be incoherent,
confused, rudderless, and unpredictable along with her equally incompetent
and unruly followers under the banner of Trinamul Congress is the answer.
Without Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, who unfortunately is quite old; Congress Party
is in the same situation as Miss Mamata Banerjee's Party. It is high time
for her to change her ways and start acting like a visionary states person
who can do sustainable good to the state and the country, helping establish
the rule of law, and creating the right atmosphere for both economic and
intellectual prosperity. I wish that at this important juncture in the life
of the state of West Bengal, the people of the state make the right decision
for a future that will be much brighter than the present.

Fat chance, jBm. If anything, they want them to come as quickly as possible,

Who told you that? Is this the latest directive from the Firm? :) :) I
doubt it, for no doubt Obama has kicked you out from that cosy perch for
your continuous impudence.
I don't expect to be the next Australian of the Year, but who knows, given
the following I am generating that is not an impossibility.

Thanks for your concern, jBm. I go with Bertiedoggie along lonely roads,
singing songs, over hills and dales, past beaches and rivers and lakes, in
my gallant old car. Unlike you, I do not trap rare turtles who seek shelter
in your swimming pool, and then convert them into soup. No beef for you -
that is for the plebs, eh! Surpassing fraud and hypocrite that you are, you
eat soup made from rare turtles while preaching sanctimoniously about
vegetarianism! Such charges had been made against you, jBm - and not by me.
Your strenuous denials were not convincing.

Now, get lost. I have wasted enough time on you and your familiar, that
harmony creature.
