Aamir Khan - Corporatist, Socialist, Egalitarian, Welfarist - and NOT a "Patriot"

Aamir Khan's column in HT titled "A worthy dream" - advocating universal State healthcare - indicates that he is "asleep": for that is when you "dream."

Reality - especially in Bombay - is SLUMS. Dirt, filth, disease.

Reality - also around Bombay - is ABUNDANT SPACE.

Do we need a decent healthy HABITAT?

A CIVILISATION?

Or do we need to ADVOCATE an INCREASED ROLE FOR THIS FAILED STATE?

On the television programme he refers to, the show ended with a message from him for donations for some Ambani charitable fund or the other.

Corporatist!

Which means "fascist" - as I discussed the other day.


Note: This is precisely what has happened to "The Great American Dream" - which was Liberty, Property and Happiness. Now, they are "born to be jailed." General Motors is a State-owned company. And they have "Obamacare."


Fascism - beware.

And as for "patriotism" - we have my recent post, also on slums.

Bollywood is fine - but "political activism" for such "heroes" is dangerous territory.


I believe in PREVENTIVE HEALTHCARE.

Cleanliness.

Not garbage everywhere.

Overcrowding.

Open drains.

We need "homesteading" - based on the "Lockean Principle."

Not Aaamir's NONSENSE.

Nor that evil, anti-people ENVIRONMENTALISM which puts trees and tigers first - while human beings get fucked.
