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.
