<p><strong>MLA&#8217;s respond when asked to raise their left hand </strong></p>
<p>Over 200 <span>legislators ( read idiots) from the southern state of Karnataka will be visiting China for an &#8220;Educational tour&#8221; of the infrastructure and administrative functioning of that country. The man who suggested the &#8220;brilliant&#8221; idea- Assembly speaker Krishna had this to say</span></p>
<p><em><span>&#8221;I visited China two years ago, and I was astounded by seeing the all-round development of China. I thought their mindset, their attitude will be completely changed if they see and come back to our country&#8221;</span></em></p>
<p><span> Point taken , but can please somebody tell me that why the hell are we sending 200 fools on this &#8220;educational tour&#8221; , when a bunch of 10 fools would suffice . The approx. cost for the fiasco is expected to be Rs 2,00,000 per fool , taking the total to Rs 55,000,000 , Damn I am not paying tax so that some MLA can get a Sandwich massage in Shanghai . This reminds me of the time when the fools visited New Delhi to experience the metro first hand. </span><span class="story_text"><br />
A high-level Chinese delegation was visiting the IT capital two months ago to promote the China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park, none of the idiots bothered to attend that presentation , Perhaps they were busy dissecting the Gere-Shilpa Shetty kiss issue as it was a time of national crisis.<br />
Let&#8217;s hope they learn something from the Chinese , at least..How not to waste public money.    </span></p>
