Modi Chor Hai

Nehru did not inherit some great industrial power and turn it into a third world dumpster fire. That is WhatsApp uncle history. He inherited a vastly overpopulated, underfed, poverty stricken hellhole. His real crime was that instead of unleashing private enterprise, he trapped the country in fashionable champagne socialism, command economy brainrot, licence-permit raj, and suspicion of anyone trying to build wealth outside the state’s permission structure. So India crawled at around 4.1% real GDP growth under Nehru, while post-1991 India has averaged around 6.1%. That extra 2% will sound small to the numerically illiterate. But compounded for decades, it is the difference between becoming a $12K per capita economy or still arguing about vishwaguru status while at $2.8K per capita.

Showing a friend's husband around Me: This is Madison Square. "Oh where the Modi event happened?" Me: No, that's at Penn Station. "Did you go to that event?" Me: No I don't like Modi. "Oh" There was awkward silence from then until we reached Union Square. 🤣

This is hugely welcome: defence investment is a force for growth, social cohesion and higher wages - the average defence job pays £57k and union density is high. Let's unashamedly rearm to face down the threat of Russian aggression.
