Political vs Economic freedom!

Political freedom is useless without good roads and uninterrupted power. Indians have wasted a lot of time since 1947 on "non-issues" like social justice, agitation to call themselves backward or for caste-based reservations, while the world is moving at a faster pace, constructing 16 land roads and 1000's of MW power plants to fuel the growth the countries are experiencing. While all this is happening in Gulf, China, Brazil, Russia and the other emerging markets, here in India, our politicians discuss for years whether they need to approve a power project of 25 MW or whether an airport should be expanded to handle 50,000 more passenger traffic.

Should we blame democracy for this? Why should a group of low IQ individuals sit and discuss what should I import and export? Why should someone I didn’t vote for, decide that a particular economic system (communism or statism) is good for everyone in country, when such a system has been discarded everywhere in the world, including those places where they were practiced violently? Give an option, I would prefer better roads and uninterrupted power THAN the right to vote. What have my votes brought in the past so many years I have voted? What have the votes of millions of voters brought to us in the last 60+ years? Hope we don't have to ask same questions 60 years from now!!
