It is sad to see the same old faces that have failed this nation over and over again.
With BJP it is the OLD Brass and with the Congress it is the Gandhi Clan.
We have build a HUGE burocracy within our political system. This burocracy acts like a clog for any new, progressive, out of the box approach.
We as citizens are given a choice to choose from BAD and WORSE. Hence no matter who ends up at the top, the nation as a whole does not feel the difference.
The only step we can take is to make sure that the government has a defined role that is measurable. Government needs to get OUT of the appeasement business. They will continue to do it unless we as citizens do not put an end to this BRIBERY.
Government should not be responsible for water/electricity/fuel supplies. Let the free market decide. If we make the government more powerful, that is done at the expense of our own liberties and freedom.
We have to get the government out of our education system with putting an end to reservations.
We need to get the government out of our religion but putting an end to Haj subsidies and ownership of Temples.
We need to get government out of our pockets by eliminating the Income Tax.
We need to put an end to out of control government spending on PET projects that are filled with bribery and corruption. We need to move from a seudo-communist state to a free market society where people earn what they deserve rather than demand what they think they deserve.

Well said!!
I agree with the statement "make sure that the government has a defined role that is measurable". Then only we can have politics free from religion. That is the fair way.

Get you english right. It's bureaucracy, not "burocracy".

Sameer, Next time you decide to vote for someone, have a spelling test for them. I would love to see those results.

Thanks for the correction. MS Word really screws up the spelling.
