This is more or less applicable to any large country of the world. The difference will be in degrees. For lesser mortals like many of us, grass looks greener on other side of the fence. However I am proud to note that Mahanta da is an exception who thinks grass is greener only in two places. US and 'sovereign' Assam. If Assam becomes an independent nation, we will see the same problems afflicting it with greater intensity creating tremendous chaos and anarchy among the common people. It will too messy and sticky for majority of the people to wriggle out of that scene. However it is expected that Mahanta da would be providing never ending justification for that mess from his famous armchair in USA.
