Why Socialism will never work ?
by Rahul Singh on Dec.24, 2011, under My views
Free market capitalism brings happiness; redistribution does not. The reason is that only free market capitalism brings earned success, imbued with nature’s true liberty. Earned success involves the ability to create value honestly — not by inheriting a fortune, not by picking up a welfare check.
The below story illustrates the same (copied from internet, overshared story) :
A huge "majority" of the class had insisted that Obama's democratic socialism worked and that no one in the “Changed America” would be poor and no one would be rich. The sophomore students were 99% convinced that they knew Obamunism worked. They had all read about "national, democratic socialism" as freshmen and they had watched Obama on TV.
The class was sold on socialism.
The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class using Obama's democratic socialism." For the rest of the year, all grades would be averaged. Everyone would receive the same grade so no one would be "unjustly" at the "bottom" of the class and no one would be "unjustly" at the "top" of the class.
There would be "economic justice" and "grade equality" in the class.
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a 'C'.
The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.
Within weeks, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little, studied even less. The students who studied hard for the first test decided they wanted a "freer ride" too, so they studied a lot less. It was a “utopian paradise” for slackers.
The second test average was a 'D'! No one was happy.
When the 3rd test was administered less than two months after plunging the entire class into Obama’s progressive, "democratic" socialism, the average was an 'F'.
The grades never increased above an 'F' as the envy and blame created rage. More tests, more F’s. Even the slackers had hard feelings. No one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
All failed.
National socialists are focused on economic justice and grade equality. Economic justice by itself is not what makes people happy. Progressives believe they can build a better society through economic justice and income equality. Free market capitalism makes earned success possible for the most people because how much I work depends on how much I get to keep. Earned success is what makes people happy. All people on this planet understand when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great.
My first winter with no winters !
by Rahul Singh on Dec.22, 2011, under Life Experiences
For the first time in my life, there are no winters in the winters. While there is temperature of 4 Degrees in NCR, Mumbai has 26 Degrees as minimum and in morning sun shines like summers are here. Winters have always been my favorite. This winter – no jackets, fan is still running, AC is still running, sun still shines (I hate sunlight like vampires 
), that awesomeness in weather and much more.
I have realized that there are no winters in this part of the country. There are only two weathers – Hot, Very Hot 
So winters are out of question.
All I wish is I don’t have to face another stupid winter next year here in Mumbai.
