Ignore Raj Thackeray ! He is a desperate politician hunting for a vote bank that does not exist ! If he talks ignore him , if he acts put him behind bars ! But emerging from all this are key issues that each thinking person must address : a)In the 1st fifty years this country staganated . Everyone was everyone's burden! b) In the next ten years there was progress with vengence but unfortunatley much of that in pockets . Large tracts of this country was excluded because of regional realities - polite way of addresing people like Laloo Yadav , Jyoti Basu , Mulayam Singh Yadav who were committed to keep their states backward. C. Logically people who were looking for a livlihood moved from those pathetic places to places of oppertunity . d. Suddenly for those in more prosperous places such 'immigrants' became 'burdens' or 'freeloaders'. Totally absurd since most of them in reality made the prosperous more prosperous! Most of them contributed in very real terms. Sadly the solution lies in a more equitable development and ensuring that the Amar Singhs, the Paswans and the Laloo Prasads are not allowed to destroy their states and create more exodus to other states! Or there is another good option . Make Raj MMS come to power in Maharastra and he may destroy Mumbai and sent the Marathis seaching for jobs in Bihar and UP .
