Luddites, beneath the skin.

Sometimes I despair over this country, whereas other times I am convinced us Indians deserve the mess we are in.

Point in case, (one of) my ex room mate, (who earns 9 Lacs pa) whose argument against allowing FDI in retail sector was that such a move will result in job losses for small retailers.

I guess the irony, that as a software developer his endeavour is to make computers smarter and humans redundant, was lost on him.
