What are the options ? Wealth distribution scheme

What are our options if congress for some reason comes to power ?.

I have heard stories how the land was taken away from people and given to someone because they politically close to them during Indira Gandhi time . Any ideas how we can protect myself from this crap of policy that congress is planning ?

Hmm, I wonder who is buying up all these national industries and infrastructure in the last decade. Could it be someone politically close to the ruling parties? Nah, can't be, they would never do that! /s

Huge infra projects need political backing otherwise no one will invest due to uncertainty. PSUs are inefficient and most of the money goes into paying salaries and pensions. For example railways pays 2/3rd of its revenue in salaries and pensions. For a high capex sector like railways it's criminal to have such a high staff compensation ratio. It's not like the common man was benefiting due to these "national" industries. It only benefited the employees of such organisations at the cost of tax payers.

@potatomato Infra projects work differently tho. It is mostly a risk mitigation strategy. You can read up on Vanderbilt, Carnegie on America's guilded age and how they functioned. Even Chaebols (Korea) like Samsung, or Keiretsu (Japan) are very similar models

These are completely scaremongering tactics of BJP politicians and supporters- pick up a few lines, make it look like they will snatch your land and jewellery and give to poor!!

Nope. The propagandist need to quote specific portion. Shameless propaganda spreading guys should cite portions. Otherwise it is clear that they are just blind Bhakts spreading lies and propaganda.

I say after the election, Modi should re-distribute ill gotten wealth of gandhis and the rest of the congress. Charity begins at home.

He should start with wealth of Adanis, Ambanis, and their beloved fraud Ramdev! Yes, charity begins at home indeed!

BJP isn’t the one suggesting wealth redistribution. Rahul is, he should get f**ked. His family are known crooks. We will get to the entrepreneurs once the political class is divested off its ill gotten wealth.

Maybe you were not following the news. In Dec or Jan, a private member bill to repeal law was passed. After that several petitions went to court and the court further asked the govt it's stance on waqf act. This all happened in March. I think BJP asked for some time to reply and then came the code of conduct.

I'm really scared TBH. Will leave the country for good of these morons come to power. With the intensity at which freebies are being distributed, it's matter of time when they are back at the helm to sink the ship.

Cute that you think current govt doesn’t give freebies.

I'll donate 1k to someone but not a million. Hope you understand the difference.

No government is whitewashed but what these morons are wanting to do is insanity and modern day theft. If you have black money, you're safe. If you have legal money, god save you
