Rice and communism

Speaker of the house is not the surround sound music system installed in the parliament.

This wisdom of Scott Adams was little realized by the left party before the previous elections.

Once in one of their party meetings somebody remarked that Trinamool Congress was a serious threat. Everybody laughed uncontrollably. Some fell of their chairs and rolled on the ground laughing. Everyone has a good sleep that night.

They were the ones with all the guns.

Then came the Singur issue. To compensate for the incompetencies of communism, they decided to forcefully sell lands at an extremely cheap rate to the very corporate their entire philosophy does not recognize. When Mamata Banerjee got angry, they thought it was just the wrong time of the month for her. But things escalated.

They had eaten too much of rice to do anything about it so they called for a strike. They had a nice holiday and everyone had more rice.

We all know how it ended. Mamata Banerjee laughed her way to the vote bank while the Left collected pieces. Now, the oil price rise is a serious issue for them. It may lead to inflation. The communists were not happy. Not only are they loosing popularity, they have to pay more for rice?

As the regional politics unfolded, we saw BJP flags on Howrah Bridge. The only reason I wouldn't vote for BJP is that they would further complicate the situation unnecessarily.
