I guess it is we the fortunate educated well off people who get a chance to express our views here. We must look at the other 80% of our countryfolk most of whom are poor farmers who will benefit from this budget and they are the ones who need all the help they can get. The situation in our country cannot get any better unless we learn to share our growth with the poor folk. The economic disparity in India is huge. While we have millionaires on one hand, we have farmers committing suicide because they can't pay off their loans. I do not mind paying a little extra tax if it goes to make a poor farmer's life any better. It is also important to understand that such kind of economic disparity is a great threat to our society and is something that we need to overcome at all costs if we are to see a truly progressive India.
