Congenital Prosperity

Quote of the day: "Call me Priyanka Vadra, not Gandhi."

When the first daughter of the country(for all practical purposes) says that she doesn't want to be known by the name that got her where she is in the first place, that smells of hypocrisy. For one, Priyanka Gandhi(or Vadra, like I give a shit....) has no business being in politics. The fact that she is only goes to say that India is a "dynastic democracy".

It seems to be getting more and more obvious that this country is repeating its own history by making sure that an individual's birth decides her fate. Just like it was in Vedic India. If you're born into a political family, chances are :

1.You'll be rolling in great wealth.
2.Rules that apply to lowly citizens will not hold for you.
3.You'll continue to amass great wealth(not a penny of it your own) throughout your life.
4.The law of the land will contort under your will.

The next best thing:
If you're born into a family that was branded (under)privileged by our constitutional fathers sixty years ago, you'll never have to struggle to be among the meritocracy. Life for you shall be "reserved". You may not have learnt shit through your school years and that won't stop you from getting into the finest educational institutions in the country. And even if you flunk there, there are jobs and promotions waiting for you outside...

The bottom line: There are those of us who work our ways up through life. There are others who suffer from Congenital Prosperity.
