Governments today in India, Goa, USA, and much of the rest of the world are merely the marketing/legal arm of corporates. They do the bidding of the rich as the expense of the poor. In India, there is little difference between the two major national "parties", their scams/corruption serve the same masters who they work for. Yes, one is more communal than the other but that is a vote-getting strategy to get elected (i.e. who will get to pass laws to rob the national treasury for their rich owners).
When one breaks down GDP growth of 6%, it translates to the rich got richer by 15% offset by the people getting poorer by 9%. This is modern-day economics in India, USA, China, etc. Who naively believes governments exist anymore for the people, by the people? Not even revolution will save the people because the revolution will be stage-managed by the corporates and the people wrongly believe they have a vote and a say in everyday governance. The illusion of democracy is a one of the great con-jobs of the last century. The only way to measure true democracy is if income-gaps close, which means everyone is getting equal opportunity in society. Right now the deck is stacked against the people, which explains the lop-sided income outcomes throughout the world - the rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer. Have a nice day.
