Re: Please desist from drawing inane conclusions

Poor people do not drive vehicles but they require roads to take their crops to the cities. They need the roads so that some help may come their way in times of adversity. They need the roads to go and meet their relatives in good times and bad who live in other villages. On Radio and TV they can see what is happening elsewhere and how it will affect them. They can be alerted of an upcoming natural calamity like storm. But how will an atom bomb help poor? What will the so called supporters west and nuclear deal do in case of a Chernobyl like disaster? Can a poor man earning Rs. 100 daily afford electricity @ Rs. 10 per unit? Why are we going ga ga over this stupid deal. Have we exhausted all other means of producing electricity? Is the sun not shining, or winds stopped blowing or oceans turned away from our shores?
