The revolving door syndrome is all is being discussed, I don't think it's
useful to deal with specific examples which are only by way of
illustration. Singh's LSE education possibly has as much effect on him for
that matter. The point being the Singh enterprise is the best we have at
the moment IMO in terms of political leadership and yet in my opinion, it
shows naive distrust of big business and acceptance of the world status quo.

Numerous times in the two terms, the Singh enterprise (UPA/NDA) has sought
to push policies that are WTO, IMF friendly that have been met with strong
rejection from the people. This requires discussion at the national level;
which as far as I know isn't happening.
