A family of squatters.

The propaganda channel, BBC devoted every minute of yesterday on the baby born to Prince William and Kate Middleton. Even the American channel, CNN spent the entire morning showing the same scenes and stupid chatter about the weight of the baby, how the father was there and how important it all was. For us Indians it was one big yawn of incomprehension. While the British have just one family we have many. While the Royal Family in Britain is ceremonial, with many palaces but no powers, the families in India control politics with their own armies of thugs to beat up any opposition and passing their whips down from one generation to the next so as to continue to suck the lifeblood out of the nation. Right at the peak is The Family with dual nationalities. Each of its 3 members is squatting on public houses worth Rs 4-5 billion each. One member of The Family has never been elected to any office, has no official post and has never done anything for the country. She also has an extremely rich husband who was revealed to own properties worth over Rs 4 billion by Ashok Khemka, who was then promptly transferred. As if this is not bad enough, the power and stickiness of The Family comes from distributing trillions of rupees of taxpayer money in handouts to legions of malnourished, naked, illiterate wretches, who vote en masse to keep The Family in power in an embrace of doom for the country. Having dual nationalities The Family has no interest in the welfare of the nation of India. It will do anything to stay in control which provides it with the kind of luxuries, power and glamour that the new-born prince of Britain can never dream of. And if the economy collapses because of their parasitism and things start to get hot they can use one of their other nationalities to scoot to safety. Just like Ottavio Quattrocchi did all those years ago. As for the wretched poor they think that they are so fortunate to get free money under the NREGA scheme, grains at Rs 2 a kilo and Rs 1500 to give birth in a government hospital. So they keep on breeding, not realising that they are being kept alive, not to climb up the social ladder to live as human beings, but as swarms of rats, thrown handfuls of grain to keep The Family in cream and silk. To only way to wealth and power is to latch onto one of these families and obey any order , no matter how criminal. Naturally, The Family, being the richest and the most powerful, has the maximum numbers of such sycophants who run around like pet hounds, hoping to pick up bones thrown away by members of The Family. While the Brits are proud of their Royal Family we are groaning under a family of squatters allowed to destroy the economy by thousands of fawning creepy crawlies.
