Such was the world my grandparents grew up in. Before ORS became commonplace. They are in their 80s.

Not dying of fever or diarrhea

I’ve no idea what CRT is but I’d like to simply answer why DEI kinda things are needed separate from poverty alleviation.

Axiomatically, I want best person for a given job and a level playing field for all. This is the kind of society I want to build.

Say there is universal basic income or universal basic services. Yay, now anyone can get free education or wait until they get job they aspire too, etc.

Do we progress towards the kind of society mentioned previously? Likely not because there are other factors like network, culture and habits that shape how we/others view us and our capabilities. Hence, mentors, counseling, special training, etc are needed.

You could just put it into the pack it came in, right?

Gandhi could grind the whole subcontinent to halt just by asking. It was economic violence in a sense.

Hinduism is a mish mash of beliefs with no standardisation. Hindus commonly pray and offer puja to many deities but many consider them to be manifestations of a single higher power.

It’s about how it should be done. Whether there should be more or fewer interventions is moot. It’s about building a world order where nations don’t feel like usa is untrustworthy. Maybe through a rules based process like UN security council.

There are other considerations too, like diversification, nuclear know how, load vs on-demand, local geoeconomics, etc

4 times for expensive is not too bad, big projects usually overrun. It’s even God considering the time overrun, which is shocking.

The whole point is to get it renewable, otherwise gasoline is even better? Anyway, the race is still on for aviation and heavy freight, and hydrogen/ammonia/methanol would probably have a place there.

Thanks for the context!

As in if you inherit some assets valued at X, is it treated as an additional source of income for that year, or as a tax free gift?

I suppose inheritance would still be subject to income tax? Wouldn’t it be better to have more income tax slabs?

Trying to distort the market so that lower priced items are more profitable is quite challenging to do without unintended consequences. A progressive consumption tax would definitely be a worthy experiment

When I say it should be free, it means that there is no cost to be paid by individual
