Trump vs Biden - Who will win in Nov 2020? - Part - II

In a way America of 17th century was founded on religious faith. They came to USA to avoid religious persecution in Europe and practice religion the way they wanted to. Hence the mindset of folks who landed here was very different from the mindset of folks who didn't migrate. [URL]https://www.loc ...

Is the US a capitalist economy?

I think the fundamental question here is "in free market capitalism, can the powerful industry people be allowed to lobby govt officials for making decisions that is in their best economic interest". This activity seems to be enshrined in the US constitution (someone correct me if I am wrong). To me ...

President Trump - the saga continues (for the next 2 years) - Part 4

India Trip --- Qs

it seems even if you turn on mobile service briefly (roaming service), you can't receive code as it is a non-indian number. They sure make it hard for foreigners to survive in India without phone connection. Both data and calls/text are so expensive in India for my verizon phone. They have a $10 per ...

Get ready for 25% Dollar appreciation

it is true that there is semblance of abundance of wealth mostly due to the services industry - several of my nephews and nieces are doing very well - starting salaries for fresh graduates in the 6-10 lakhs is way out of whack with everything else in the country. You can now see people wanting to ...
