Now that they didn’t, we have another year to live in. Another load of sorrows to be engulfed in. Another year where haters gonna hate and creepers gonna creep. Another set of suicide attempts where most would be unsucessful.</p> <p>Sigh. Just imagine having to live through all this for another year. Don’t you think the world is better off dead?

They were the lyrics that came to my mind when I <a href="http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics/nation/trials-of-india-bound-russian-nuke-submarine-in-final-stages/articleshow/9579306.cms">heard today</a> about the multi-million dollar nuke submarine that was being  imported to India from Russia and the whole multi-billion dollar submarine deal. India is home to many billionaires, but it’s also a country with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty_in_India">billions of people</a> below the poverty line. For how many days could the Indian government have fed those mouths if they hadn’t wasted the money on the stupid subs? Think of all the money they spend trying to win a piece of land in Kashmir. And to show the rest of the world that they’re a super power.</div> <div>Why, India, why?</div> </div> <blockquote> <div><em>The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind</em></div> <div><em>The answer is blowing in the wind.</em></div> </blockquote> <div>PS:  Wrote and compiled the whole post while on a Colombo-Matara bus. <img alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f642.png" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;"/></div> https://blog.thameera.com/boom/feed/ 8 452
