Having secured a windfall in the last elections they are on track to whittle down their own influence next time around. Those with a conspiracy bent will wonder about the communists' opposition and the discomfort felt by China at the prospects of a Indo-US strategic relationship. <BR/><BR/>On a wider level, the Indian political class is populated by pygmies. The mainstream media is either incompetent or are themselves Fabian socialists or both. The electorate,at least the well-informed populace, are too cynical to take care. Ultimately, India is doomed to just 'muddle along the middle'(not my phrase) punctured by periodic bouts of euphoria about economic prospects like we are witnessing currently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633256254508472341.post-29107805554877004302007-08-23T15:17:00.000-08:002007-08-23T15:17:00.000-08:00Ft Meyers, home of Acacia's 1200 undeveloped lotsFt Meyers, home of Acacia's 1200 undeveloped lotsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633256254508472341.post-44266237273348989682007-08-22T08:41:00.000-08:002007-08-22T08:41:00.000-08:00With respect to the future prospects of U.S. manuf...With respect to the future prospects of U.S. manufacturing, I put a lot more stock in the "rising transportation costs" story than the "increasing productivity" story.
