First of.. why would you ask a "poor man" his opinion about the nuclear deal?
Second, how are the two even related? I heard people saying -- there more important issues like saving people drowning in Bihar. WTF.. are we to suspend all economic activity to save drowning and hungry people. That is an altogether different thread of national decision-making!
Third, the nuclear deal is about nuclear energy, and not a nuclear bomb. It is about energy independence for better infrastructure and to achieve self-reliance. The poor will benefit too. How would irrigation work without electricity?

I agree. The Indian press needs to be Outsourced to other countries - perhaps Sri Lanka or Bangla Desh. The level competence of Indian Journalists and reporters are at an appalling low. I would'nt be surprised if even the Indian press thinks that Nuclear Suppliers Club is some kind of Gambling Club of sorts or may be a 'Polo Club'!! As regards the confusion between Nuclear Energy and Nuclear Bomb is rather 'Blur' - much like the journlists view. The India press community thinks Enegry comes from the Bomb - so without the Bomb - there cannot be Energy. Can't blame them - even Einstein wondered about this.
