Real problems & their solution
by Ram Sharma on Aug 04, 2008 07:32 PM

Main problem of the country is not electricity, but high population, high corruption, consumerism, farmers' suicide and galloping inflation. Sonia & MMS hurried for the n deal only to divert peoples' attention from real problems. Following measures r required for taming galloping inflation.

1. Stop forward trading in essential items. Big traders hoard lot of goods to artificailly increase prices. Left had been demanding this for a long time.

2. Increase taxes drastically on sale of cars. Petrolium is to b imported for all the vehicles. Roads all over the country r already getting jammed due to lot of vehicles. These vehicles also create pollution.

3. Reduce taxes on bicycles. Provide separate lane for cycles for safety, as is the case in Japan, Germany, Holland, France etc.

4. Hand / Bullock carts should b allowed in market areas and banned on main roads.

5. Govt should propagate the virtues of simple living through all types of medias.

6. For long term solution, implement one child norm forcefully, as is being doen in China since 1979. We've only 2.4% of world's land but already hv 16% of its population, which is still increasing @1.6%, compared to 0.6% of China. One child norm will not reduce population, it will only reduce rate of growth of population.

7. Levy tax on agricultural income of rich farmers. Many politicians and industrialists save misuse this facility.

8. Remove Service tax fully.

9. Increase tax on high income group.
