Dec 0819“Capitalism and communism stand at opposite poles. Their essential difference is this: The communist, seeing the rich man and his fine home, says: ‘No man should have so much.’ The capitalist, seeing the same thing, says: ‘All men should have so much.’”
Both India and China want to become great powers, but there ends the similarities between them.
In India it is a people’s movement, where as in China it is a people’s party’s movement
In India, the citizens are bringing about the change, while in China the government is in charge of the change.
So, development is more of a prestige issue in China, than the well being of its people. Millions massacred by the communist movement, and still counting , the Chinese Red Party wants to be in control of everything, not just within China, but if possible all over the world.
They want to be numero uno in every field: olympics, military, buildings, fastest train, largest airport, all the biggest, largest, longest, entries in the general knowledge books should belong to the Chinese, no matter what it takes.
But sometimes they forget that all it takes is a bit of commonsense!
Look at this news report . Chinese authorities had arranged for a complete Trip to China package for the Nobel Prize jurors (judges) from the medicine, physics and chemistry committees of the Nobel prize! It is said that the Chinese authorities paid for their plane tickets, hotels and meals!
What for? Well, the Chinese wanted the judges of the Nobel prize committees to, “explain the selection process and what it takes to win a Nobel Prize”!!!
Well, isn’t it a primary school knowledge all over the world that outstanding research work, inventions and discoveries in the respective fields will help one get the Nobel prize?
Or is it that the Communist stalwarts of China wanted to groom scientists who will conduct research only on those specific topics for which there is a potential to earn a Nobel prize? Say for instance, asking a Chinese scientist to create stable worm holes?
Or is it that they wanted to check if any political science could be applied to grab the most prestigious basic sciences prize?
All’s well that gets Nobel
Most people who read “The Communist Manifesto” probably have no idea that it was written by a couple of young men who had never worked a day in their lives, and who nevertheless spoke boldly in the name of “the workers”.

Hi i am regular reader of your website and all the articles are really great and informative.
Regarding the above mentioned article i presume that u r not only against China but against communist ideologies too. China and USSR are the nations who started out as communist countries but later the excessive powers corrupted them. China as a country has long swayed away from communist ideologies. Snatching away land from common people to make way for cooperate buildings is definitely not a communist philosophy.
As for the beginning quote by Phelps adams it is the voice of the capitalist american, nothing much. -
I visited this site as I was looking for carnatic / film song notations. Your site is a good start. But, do you know that notations are so very skeletal in nature and the true glides and slides (Gamaka) are lost in notations? Sivakumar’s site is one of the best where notations are accompanied by explanations. (http://www.ecse.rpi.edu/Homepages/shivkuma/music/). I was a little curious to know more about you and ended up reading your other ’stuff’.
* Just because some quotation is posted it does not become gospel truth. Please read this.
http://wwsword.blogspot.com/2009/09/anti-communist-lies.html* I could not help but laugh, when you mentioned “In India, the citizens are bringing about the change….”. Have you ever wondered why a lot of India’s money is in Swiss Banks? It is likely that you will blame the common man for the sorry state of affairs in our motherland that you and I love a lot. Many (educated?) people find fault with the common man and simply laugh things off, because that is the easiest thing one can do.
* I have not lived in China on a day to day basis to comment so confidently as you do. Communism has different interpretations, similar to many interpretations of Hinduism. Just because some saffron clad GodMen(?!) are bad, Hinduism cannot be described as bad. Practice, Interpreation etc are different from a broad concept.
Nobel Prize, World Beauty Peagent, Femina Awards etc are all private organizations which have their own agenda. They have some ‘extra/broader – intent’ when they give an award. If you find that the Chinese are questioning the nobel prize then there may be some reason to it than whatever meets your eyes/ears.
There are so many things that are not right about our country. Just because some individual can shout against someone powerful (with no or little effect to that person), it doesn’t make it a truly free society. If you look at examples like what we hear from the media about the Ruchika case, you will know how great the state of affairs is.
Bottom Line: We are not in Heaven, China is not hell and it is better to broaden one’s view/vision before writing such a sweeping commentary. Take it easy. This is not a personal attack. I chose to write because you chose to publish.
Sounds like you may be deeply obsessed in your interpretations of the world. Please try to see if you need to broaden your scope and I am sure you will see things in better light.
