@Cation If he is calling you unfit for public policy, imagine what he will say about me. Too bad, it is too late now. 😂

I am unfit for a socialistic liberal economy. I am way too conservative to run that kind of an economy. The World doesn't run on giving out freebies. Even biology teaches us about survival of the fittest. I can only help others if I reach my true potential, but saying that I should be slower so that others can catch up to me is non-sensical.

the world runs exactly on freebies, dude. that's why I asked this question - do you love India or not?

I don't. not because I'm some socialist liberal or such nonsense. because I'm an individualist, and I detest every kind of group, and the biggest and most powerful group is a nation.

do you hate it or not? tell me.

survival of the fittest doesn't mean, what you think it means btw.

you are worthless to even think about. if you insist, I would posit that you should be shot like a rabid dog. 

the way you argue, placing feelings over facts is absolutely disgusting.

No one said that you should be slower so that others can catch up to you. stop setting up straw man, and arguing against it.

I definitely don't use such lame arguments.

I simply said that public policy has to take into account the entire population while planning, and if you think they should just let people run wild, then there's absolutely no need for a govt or a nation. pretty sure that you'll enjoy that utopia where people kill each other in kind of survivalist game.

What do you mean by do I love India or not? I like parts of it, I hate a lot of it. I like the culture I grew up with because I can see where I come from and it helps me shape my identity. There are a lot of things I don't like about India. I have no blanket answer for do I love India. India is a country I was born in and spent twenty years of my life in, I am grateful to the opportunities I got. In a parallel Universe, if I was born and brought up in a different country, I would feel the same way about that country.

your success (or whatever it is, that you think you've achieved) was possible because of your position in society, and the giveaways govt gave to your class to advantage them against the lower class. 

so in effect, it was poor people, who let you become rich, when they should have demanded more from their govt. now, if you think that people have to come up on their own ways, what are the rules? do you agree with the rules framed by the govt, or do you think it should be free for all to make their own rules.

if its the latter, I hope someone targets and kills you, because it would just be 'survival of fittest' in action. but if you agree to govt rules, the argument is about how fair the rules are to everyone. stop pretending as if you even understand what you are saying, beyond the filth Ayn Rand filled your mind with.

I mean, do you love the Indian state or not. forget about culture.

do you support Indian repression of kashmir? do you even feel a little bit ashamed of being an Indian now that India has occupied kashmir? etc..

Peter Keating is the perfect example for conformist idealogy that is influenced by the social ladder of comparison and ambiguity over work being influenced by others ~ can't describe a better way of someone slowing you down, ending up doing what others want than what you truly want.
