Sorry to be bringing up a red herring, or should I say a red flag, but Kerala
also just happens to have had a communist led alliance leading it for the past
few decades. Kerala has very high government spending, specially on social
programs - quite the antithesis to Mario's supposedly free market credentials.
Its per capita income is far below that of Goa's and for its large size has
very little industry to speak of. Among the large Indian states, it has the
largest percentage of its working population working as migrants in other parts
of the country and the world. Luckily, Mario does not have to travel very far
to enjoy such a socialist paradise. Fidel Castro's Cuba is only a few hours
away from him. Kerala is the Cuba of India.
It looks like Mario can't seem to be able to make his mind. Just a while ago,
he was bashing Cuba. More recently, he was stating that the US medical system
was the best in the world while he bashed those of Canada and Britain. But
oops, now he admits that the medical system in the US is actually bankrupt.
Global cooling or is it global warming now?? Was Pope John Paul actually an Al
Qaieda operative??
Apparently, Mario thinks, we Goans are unique in electing bad politicians and
choosing bad bureaucrats as well. Tell us more Secret Agent Mario. Comedic
relief is always welcome on goanet.

While a small army of Goan crabs from politicians to bureaucrats to developers
are busy tearing Goa down, people from another Indian state are busy building
India up:
1. Indian Defense Minister is from Kerala
2. Indian Foreign Secretary is from Kerala

Hats Off to Kerala!!!!
