A Letter to Those who Ru(i)n my Country on occasion of the National Budget

I wish we could also have a Budget Session wherein the Hon Prime Minister, the Leader of the Opposition, the Chief Ministers of the various States alongwith the Leaders of the Opposition, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, the Speakers of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, the Chief Vigilance Commissioner, the Election Commissioner, All the Different Secretaries of the different Secretariats viz. Cabinet Secy, Home Secy, Finance Secy etc, all the Cabinet Ministers and the Representatives of the Parliament and the Rajya Sabha could gather alongwith all the top industrialists of the country, the media barons, the trustees of all the various Mandirs and Masjids, the heads of all denominations of all religions, all the so-called Civil Liberty Movement people, social workers and inform the Common People in simple terms, the following:

  1. The no. of Scams we will have this year
  2. The Amounts of hundreds or thousands of billion dollars that will be stolen from you
  3. The No. of National Interest Instruments which will be sold for our own needs
  4. And most importantly, how much tax we will pay to fund all of the above
I would really appreciate for a change, this honesty... I am a Common Man, I cannot stop you from doing what you will .... so why keep the farce, tell me and do it... please

As a wise man said, if you cannot stop Rape, at least enjoy it!
