vvvslaxman Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 This is more like a dream which is almost impossible to achieve . Keep in mind cheap labour and non existant labour laws in countries like China and Bangladesh is why many go to these countries. US will never have ultra cheap labour and labour laws like china or Bangladesh Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk Exactly. There is one section of america who would always argue how they should retain the job for Americans which is a fair argument . But in a capitalist free market anything goes. Many have their plants outside for tax reasons. Apple is the biggest offender of this. Capitalism is not going to worry about "patriotism". Infact Patriotism is a threat to capitalism. You cannot have both ways. India is not exactly a full fledged capitalistic country. Lot of poor people. You have to strike a balance. Going fully social is also dangerous for us. We tend to directly compare "Indian right wingers are the same American right wingers". In India left wing is the one who is embroiled in corruption and politicizing everything. In US it is the right wing that is causing all the problems. Also the issues at hand are different for India different for USA. Issues are about Gun control, planned parenthood, Universal healthcare, Foreign policy, Immigration policy besides Economy. India has lot of third world issues which USA doesn't have to deal with besides economy. Modi is a matured seasoned politician who is ready to enter into dialogue and get things moving. This guy has none of those qualities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beetle Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Donald Trump had beef with Megyn Kelly way before he boycotted the most most recent debate. Back in August, Trump called Kelly a "lightweight" who had "blood coming out of her whatever." To make a statement about that crude, obnoxious comment, artist Sarah Levy painted his portrait with blood coming out of her whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vvvslaxman Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Actually this boycott was a result of her question in that debate . That was hardly an offensive question. Then he made a twitter comment about her period blood. This time he called her bimbo and posted a photoshopped pictured on his twitter. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moniker Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Comparing India's right wing to Trump is silly. Modi came to power because in his campaign he stayed clear of religion as much as possible and concentrated more on freeing the Indian market. American economy is already economically right winged and Trump brings nothing new. All we have are his bigoted statements and outrageous promises with no mention of how actually he's going to implement his policies.

maniac Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) Trump has not articulated things well but the essence of what he is trying to say about illegal immigration and Islamic terror is just paraphrasing the common sentiment.So far the most concrete plan he has had(no pun intended) is building a wall,apart from that his solutions about healthcare,terrorism and economy sound like a conversation between 2 bored housewives over a glass of wine.Shivaji Bhosle the poster in a post above came up with a better high level scenario as to how he will take manufacturing away from china than Trump has in his campaign lol.I think Trump had he not let his ego and showmanship come in the way,would have had the best shot to win these elections by a landslide.....Does he even have a campaign team or if he does does he even listen to them?Also Indians cheering for trump are idiots.....once the ban on muslims is implemented...do you think the truck driver in Alabama or the Plumber from South Carolina can tell the difference? Maybe he should hire a Paki like Imran Khan or his followers to identify mountain people etc and the geneology to determine who is who.He will continue to win while others splitting the vote. It is going to be fun in the general election. Lot of entertainment awaiting us lol. Sanders will walk all over him in a debate...infact even Hillary but Sanders will crush him.

So the republican party will loose the general election. The republican party doesnt even have good candidate. yet they had over 10 people fighting this election. Sanders is too socialist though. I dont think his policies will work for a capitalist america. In america everything is overhyped like housing, wall street. If he is going crackdown on wall street U.S economy will suffer. The health care plan make sense but then again who will pay for research of new drugs. His education plan will not work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vvvslaxman Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Bernie Sanders drinking game: Every time he mentions "free stuff", take a swig of another guy's beer.That is a generic way of dismissing his policies. Many economists have endorsed his policy. Many of the republicans do not even go through his plan and make a blanket accusation "Free everything".

Shivaji bhonsle Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 Sanders is a Jew, communist / socialist. Weird combination I must say.

Increasing taxes to grant people the rights to education and healthcare is not the same as denying private entities to own factories or manufacture goods.
