Absurdities

The proposed Women's Code Bill in God's Own Country seeks to punish parents with more than two children and people/institutions promoting such families with a fine or a prison term. The Bill would have made sense in any other state in India but never in Kerala. The state will be facing the problem of declining, ageing population soon.

A good number of American politicians and elected representatives do not agree with the general scientific view on climate change or evolution. This in a country that is (or was?) at the frontier of all scientific and technological development in the past few decades. Sorry to rub it in, but is moronism the new religion in the U.S?

Japan, very famous for its law abiding, orderly population, also has very corrupt politicians.

ISI claims to be fighting terror. (Give me a break!)

Silvio Berlusconi continues to be the PM of Italy which has a predominantly Roman Catholic population. Taking the spirit of forgiveness to new heights!

CBI claims to be an independent agency. (I'd rather believe that sun rises in the west.)

TRAI believes limiting the max. no. of smses a person can send to 100/day will help stop both spamming and terrorist activities. [Yeah! ;)]

Saudi Arabian women can vote and contest in elections, but can't drive.
