A threatening car by Tata - American & Indian values on display

American journalists reported recently an Indian car posed threat to America - read America as globe. This car will cause global warming and submerge everything. And there is a dreamer behind this conspiracy.

Ratan Tata, as he says, dreamt of giving Indian common man an affordable car. He recently realized the dream. As the car was within the reach of many Indians. It sent chill down the spine of many people - Competitors, Environmentalists, and the funniest of them all are American scribes. A journo, from the land of free enterprise, writing against a big breakthrough in the automobile industry is funny. I have all the sympathies going for Americans. This is the worst crises America is facing since 9/11.

Yep! TATA has no right to behave so recklessly. Producing such a cheap car!!! How dare he!!! Either the world is with America or against. And now our very own Ratan is against them. I wonder how he is feeling after standing in the league of Osamas.

Never mind Dear representatives of Uncle Sam, we have some Sunitas for your help. Sunita Narain is the Director of Center for Science and Environment, India. She is talking about higher taxation and end of subsidies for motor vehicle users, so that the people who dream of owning a car pay a fitting price. But as always she and other elite get these valid arguments late in the day. Now common man is finding it difficult to swallow her bitter pill.

Isn't Nano better and safer than auto rickshaws existing on Delhi's roads? In terms of fuel efficiency, is it not better than many big luxury cars used by the likes of Sunita - I mean to say elite? It's baffling, are these people just hypocrites or against common man? The state has already given so much to the rich in terms of subsidies (road usage, parking, etc.) if I go by Sunita’s argument. And now something is going the poor's way and they are concerned about pollution and clogged roads? Aren't those roads already clogged?

Tax bigger cars heavily and I guarantee these people will book Nanos for themselves; this is how the elite in India, rather every where, behaves. Long live hypocrisy!!!
