How many people have you heard stealing 1,72,00,00,00,000 rupees? And how many have you heard stealing 10,000 rupees?
My point was that we get worked up for one time theft of XXXX rupees, whereas we consider thousands of class C government employees demanding anywhere from 1000 to 10,000 rupees from hundreds of people everyday as passable.
Also, why should I not blame middle class Indians for what they are (not) doing? The middle class in India is a huge section of people. If you want something you should be prepared to risk everything and fight for it. If you are not willing to risk it, then you deserve what you get. Imagine the benefits we can reap in future if we are willing to duke it out now.
Also, this risk averse attitude is the reason why we were ruled by the British for 200 years. Only once people started risking everything they had did we get the Independence we deserved. Why should fighting inept politicians who are ruining my country be any different from fighting a foreign aggresor?
Well, I mean, obviously. Not that it's passable, but do you want to spend energy bringing every pickpocket to justice or do you want to spend energy bringing justice to ONE man who scammed the country out of as much money as HALF IT'S POPULATION makes in a YEAR?
