Do you feel there is a vacuum in very important fields in India?

Despite being #1 in population, I find vaccuum in Imp Fields like

  • Politics - no great politician
  • Media - no great journalist
  • Music - very few great artists like A.R.R
  • Movies - Bollywood is struggling
  • Sports - Except cricket other all sports suffering
  • Innovation- Hardly any pathbreaking companies.. & So on… If you agree what are the reasons for this? Are we just focused on playing it safe and earning money ? Or there are no role models to follow?

As of now One could get a serving of biscuits for equivalent of 6 US cents, that's arguably top notch/ world class CPG execution for you (all the manufacturing efficiency to supply chain optimisation taken care of)

In the larger scheme of things, artificial famines were not too long ago, priorities have been different, it's a coming of age story.

There is nothing objective about Movies Music Politics, if the metric is money few Indian artists do own Rolls Royces / Mansions.

How does one even define "great politician", one staying in power for longest? Nehruji anyone?

[Layoffs] Why have we just collectively decided to suck it up rather than retaliate?

It's infuriating how everyone's advice to deal with layoffs is side hustles, wasting your life away to constantly upskill and reducing spending. Basically everyone here is saying "live life like shit to appease your corporate overlords" ...
