Economic Issues
India has one of the world's fastest-developing economies. It belongs to the group of developing nations that continually seek to strengthen their economic conditions. The enormous population of India presents a lot of difficulties that must be resolved for it to keep expanding. Yet, India confronts several economic issues, which we will address in this blog post. We'll talk about the main issues and toughest obstacles the Indian economy faces.
What are economic issues?
Economic issues refer to any difficulty in the economy that is concerned with the production of goods and services to meet the economy's endless desires through the use of scarce resources. In other words, a choice-making issue brought on by a lack of resources is typically referred to as an economic difficulty. It develops because humans have limitless demands but only a few ways to satisfy them.
Central problems of an economy
The production, distribution, and exchange of goods and services are the three core issues of an economy. Let's look at these issues: what to produce, how to produce, and for whom to produce. Doing so will help us identify the demands of society.
(I) What to produce?
This issue entails deciding which products should be created as well as how much of each product should be produced.
A nation must choose what types of commodities and services to produce as it has limited resources and cannot produce all goods.
For instance, if a farmer only has one plot of land available for farming, he must decide between growing wheat or rice.
(II) How to produce?
This problem determines which production method to use in the creation of the chosen goods and services.
There are primarily two production methods. Which are:
1) Capital-intensive approach (more reliance on machines)
2) Labor-intensive approach (more labor is employed)
Capital-intensive techniques encourage efficiency and expansion, whereas labor-intensive techniques generate employment.

(III) For whom to produce?
This topic is concerned with determining the types of people who will consume the goods, i.e., to produce goods for the rich or the poor.
Society is unable to fulfill everyone's needs. Hence, it must decide how much of the entire output of commodities and services should go to whom.
Furthermore, society must decide whether to produce luxury items or everyday goods. This distribution or ratio is closely related to the economy's purchasing power.
Causes of economic issues
Some of the primary causes of economic problems are listed below:
1. Endless human desires
Human beings have limitless wants and needs, so they can never be satisfied. A person will experience new cravings once their initial need has been met. Because of the limited resources available, the unending number of people's needs continues to grow.
2. Unavailability of resources
Resources like labor, land, and capital are not enough to meet demand. As a result, the economy is unable to satisfy everyone's needs.
3. Other uses
Due to a lack of resources, the same resources are employed for several reasons, and choosing among resources is consequently crucial. For instance, gasoline is used for running equipment, generators, and vehicles. Thus, the economy should now select one of the alternate applications.
Major challenges faced by the Indian economy
The Indian economy faces several ups and downs due to the following reasons:
1. Unemployment
Unemployment reflects the health of the economy. It is a condition in which an individual actively seeks employment but is unable to obtain work. Workers who are unemployed experience financial hardship, which harms their families, relationships, and communities. However, the level of poverty may rise as a result of little or no income, which would slow down economic development and progress.
2. Poor education
Many children in India are unable to receive a proper education because of poverty, unstable finances, or other resource shortages. Due to their lack of skills and intellectual capacity, these kids find it difficult to fit into social situations. As a result, they are unable to participate in the same activities as educated people due to the lack of resources that education generates.
Explore ”Study24hr.com” if you're looking for an online instructional resource. It is an incredible online learning environment that seeks to improve students' academic performance and understanding abilities. Learners can access a variety of study materials, such as mock test papers, daily boosters, academic notes, and tutorial videos, with the help of this wonderful site, making it easier for them to prepare for their exams. Additionally, ”Study24hr.com” allows educators to publish their notes on its website, generating qualified leads.
3. Population density
The population density of India is among the greatest in the world. The major issue that the Indian economy faces is this population density combined with an infrastructure that cannot keep up with the population expansion. Besides, congestion emerges as a problem with increased population densities as more people begin to dwell in an area. Problems such as packed roads and transit congestion make it difficult for people to commute by public transportation, leading to people buying more vehicles, which then leads to other problems such as traffic jams and pollution.
4. Corruption
Another significant issue that the Indian economy faces is corruption. The economy is greatly inefficient and wasteful as a result of corruption. It causes plenty of social issues. Moreover, corruption functions as an ineffective tax on businesses, ultimately driving up production costs and lowering investment returns.
Conclusion
It is acknowledged that India needs to solve several economic concerns quickly to improve its economic situation. We must acknowledge the importance of education in addressing these problems if we want to overcome them. Hence, assist India's underprivileged folks in receiving a quality education because it is the responsibility of the educated person to inform others of the value of education. Keep in mind that India can develop more as we learn more about it!

Why we don’t like it when children hit us back
To all the children who have ever been told to “respect” someone that hated them.
March 21, 2023
Even those of us that are disturbed by the thought of how widespread corporal punishment still is in all ranks of society are uncomfortable at the idea of a child defending themself using violence against their oppressors and abusers. A child who hits back proves that the adults “were right all along,” that their violence was justified. Even as they would cheer an adult victim for defending themself fiercely.
Even those “child rights advocates” imagine the right child victim as one who takes it without ever stopping to love “its” owners. Tear-stained and afraid, the child is too innocent to be hit in a guilt-free manner. No one likes to imagine the Brat as Victim—the child who does, according to adultist logic, deserve being hit, because they follow their desires, because they walk the world with their head high, because they talk back, because they are loud, because they are unapologetically here, and resistant to being cast in the role of guest of a world that is just not made for them.
If we are against corporal punishment, the brat is our gotcha, the proof that it is actually not that much of an injustice. The brat unsettles us, so much that the “bad seed” is a stock character in horror, a genre that is much permeated by the adult gaze (defined as “the way children are viewed, represented and portrayed by adults; and finally society’s conception of children and the way this is perpetuated within institutions, and inherent in all interactions with children”), where the adult fear for the subversion of the structures that keep children under control is very much represented.
It might be very well true that the Brat has something unnatural and sinister about them in this world, as they are at constant war with everything that has ever been created, since everything that has been created has been built with the purpose of subjugating them. This is why it feels unnatural to watch a child hitting back instead of cowering. We feel like it’s not right. We feel like history is staring back at us, and all the horror we felt at any rebel and wayward child who has ever lived, we are feeling right now for that reject of the construct of “childhood innocence.” The child who hits back is at such clash with our construction of childhood because we defined violence in all of its forms as the province of the adult, especially the adult in authority.
The adult has an explicit sanction by the state to do violence to the child, while the child has both a social and legal prohibition to even think of defending themself with their fists. Legislation such as “parent-child tort immunity” makes this clear. The adult’s designed place is as the one who hits, and has a right and even an encouragement to do so, the one who acts, as the person. The child’s designed place is as the one who gets hit, and has an obligation to accept that, as the one who suffers acts, as the object. When a child forcibly breaks out of their place, they are reversing the supposed “natural order” in a radical way.
This is why, for the youth liberationist, there should be nothing more beautiful to witness that the child who snaps. We have an unique horror for parricide, and a terrible indifference at the 450 children murdered every year by their parents in just the USA, without even mentioning all the indirect suicides caused by parental abuse. As a Psychology Today article about so-called “parricide” puts it:
Unlike adults who kill their parents, teenagers become parricide offenders when conditions in the home are intolerable but their alternatives are limited. Unlike adults, kids cannot simply leave. The law has made it a crime for young people to run away. Juveniles who commit parricide usually do consider running away, but many do not know any place where they can seek refuge. Those who do run are generally picked up and returned home, or go back on their own: Surviving on the streets is hardly a realistic alternative for youths with meager financial resources, limited education, and few skills.
By far, the severely abused child is the most frequently encountered type of offender. According to Paul Mones, a Los Angeles attorney who specializes in defending adolescent parricide offenders, more than 90 percent have been abused by their parents. In-depth portraits of such youths have frequently shown that they killed because they could no longer tolerate conditions at home. These children were psychologically abused by one or both parents and often suffered physical, sexual, and verbal abuse as well—and witnessed it given to others in the household. They did not typically have histories of severe mental illness or of serious and extensive delinquent behavior. They were not criminally sophisticated. For them, the killings represented an act of desperation—the only way out of a family situation they could no longer endure.
- Heide, Why Kids Kill Parents, 1992.
Despite these being the most frequent conditions of “parricide,” it still brings unique disgust to think about it for most people. The sympathy extended to murdering parents is never extended even to the most desperate child, who chose to kill to not be killed. They chose to stop enduring silently, and that was their greatest crime; that is the crime of the child who hits back. Hell, children aren’t even supposed to talk back. They are not supposed to be anything but grateful for the miserable pieces of space that adults carve out in a world hostile to children for them to live following adult rules. It isn’t rare for children to notice the adult monopoly on violence and force when they interact with figures like teachers, and the way they use words like “respect.” In fact, this social dynamic has been noticed quite often:
Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority” and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person” and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay.
(https://soycrates.tumblr.com/post/115633137923/stimmyabby-sometimes-people-use-respect-to-mean)
But it has received almost no condemnation in the public eye. No voices have raised to contrast the adult monopoly on violence towards child bodies and child minds. No voices have raised to praise the child who hits back. Because they do deserve praise. Because the child who sets their foot down and says this belongs to me, even when it’s something like their own body that they are claiming, is committing one of the most serious crimes against adult society, who wants them dispossessed.

I kind of hate all the comparisons between kipperlily and like. Those fuckass "affirmative action fucks me over I wish I was [minority] so it would be easier" people because none of that. Is what she said. She said the bad kids already had more experience with adventuring before they got to augefort and it meant they had an advantage. Which is true. Yeah Riz was lower-class but his mum was a COP. Riz, Kristen and Fig had parents who were heroes (Sandra-Lynn is an active ranger, Kristen's parents are paladins, Sklonda is a rogue), Adaine's family was super rich and politically influential, Fabian had both. Gorgug's the only one who wasn't actively at an advantage [IN THE CONTEXT OF HAVING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HEROISM] and she didn't have shit to say about him. Kipperlily was the first person in her family to try heroism, the bad kids are largely legacy admissions.
Additionally to the people comparing it to the "anti-affirmative action" crowd: do you know what affirmative action is. The bad kids didn't receive special consideration on their admissions to aguefort or scholarships or additional financial support or extended assessment times or anything. How could she be mad about affirmative action if none of these people received affirmative action. What they DID have was knowledge about their classes that started much earlier than high school, which is what Kipperlily said in her file that she thought grading should be adjusted for because she did not have that.
To me it's less like affirmative action and more like augefort is like an IQ test. They pretend that it's fair and objective, but you can be taught how to do those things from a younger age, and if your parents took the time to teach you pattern recognition and shit then you'll do better on an IQ test than someone who wasn't trained for it and everyone will act like that makes you innately smarter when it doesn't. It just means someone taught you how to do that earlier.
Barring Gorgug, every one of the bad kids had access to information about heroism and their class at a younger age than Kipperlily did, which primed them for success in their classes. Every one of them got additional information about mysteries from their families (and even direct battle-tactics training from Bill), Riz especially with getting classified info out of his mum. Kipperlily does not have hero relatives. She's the first in her family line to attend a hero school. She knew nothing about it before her first day, meanwhile Kristen was already the chosen of Helio, Adaine had already been attending the best wizard school in the country, Fabian had already spent his whole life training with his father, and Riz was already involved in solving mysteries using info and tactics he got from his parents.
They aren't necessarily "privileged" (except Fabian and Adaine), but Kipperlily didn't say they were, she said that in the specific context of attending a hero school they had a prior-knowledge advantage. Saying they didn't is like comparing the grades of a kid who's academic career started with preschool with a kid who didn't attend until middle school and acting like one of them wasn't better prepared.

A.2.4 Are anarchists in favour of “absolute” liberty?
No. Anarchists do not believe that everyone should be able to “do whatever they like,” because some actions invariably involve the denial of the liberty of others.
For example, anarchists do not support the “freedom” to rape, to exploit, or to coerce others. Neither do we tolerate authority. On the contrary, since authority is a threat to liberty, equality, and solidarity (not to mention human dignity), anarchists recognise the need to resist and overthrow it.
The exercise of authority is not freedom. No one has a “right” to rule others. As Malatesta points out, anarchism supports “freedom for everybody … with the only limit of the equal freedom for others; which does not mean … that we recognise, and wish to respect, the ‘freedom’ to exploit, to oppress, to command, which is oppression and certainly not freedom.” [Errico Malatesta: His Life and Ideas, p. 53]
In a capitalist society, resistance to all forms of hierarchical authority is the mark of a free person — be it private (the boss) or public (the state). As Henry David Thoreau pointed out in his essay on “Civil Disobedience” (1847)
“Disobedience is the true foundation of liberty. The obedient must be slaves.”

Hey, yanno how Climate Change is a real thing that is tangibly, at this moment, affecting our world?
Well it turns out, the wealthy and their investment firms have been seeing the mounting evidence that oil companies have had for decades and are slowly starting to think more long-term about their portfolios in the face of rising sea levels, more extreme weather, and the myriad of ways climate crises are affecting...well. Everything. Maybe this means they invest more into sustainability, green energy, building more resilient infrastructure, or carbon offsets. Some of it, of course, is simple corporate greenwashing, but there are those that are taking this trend and packaging it into something called ESG (Environmental, Social, and corporate Governance).
Now some people would say this is predictable, even sensible. Just the good ol’ Free Market(tm) rationally responding to market forces and a changing world.
But those people would be fools! Insidious fools! For conservative sorcerers have come out with a new cursed phrase to explain this new market trend: Woke Investing.
What makes this investing “woke?” Well, much like how conservatives normally flounder when trying to define a word they stole from black people, “Woke Investing” essentially just means any kind of capital investment that they, the fossil fuel billionaire class and their sycophants, don’t personally profit from.
One of these aforementioned sycophants is Andy Puzder, conservative commentator, fellow at The Heritage Foundation, and former fast-food CEO. He calls this kind of so-called woke investing “socialism in sheep’s clothing,” further explaining in leaked audio of a closed-door meeting:
“My father's generation's challenge was the Nazis, who, by the way, were, of course, very proud socialists[citation fucking needed]. The challenge of my generation was the communists, who were, of course, very committed socialists. The challenge of your generation is ESG investing, and it's more insidious than communism or the Nazis.”(source)
You heard it here first, folks. Not investing as much in fossil fuels is more insidious than the Third Fucking Reich.
As usual, the Heritage Foundation is putting their petro-chemical donor’s money where their mouth is. Bills are being proposed to blacklist banks that don’t invest in key state industries, such as West Virginia coal or Texas oil. Fourteen states have already passed bills to restrict ESG-type investing, with Florida Governor Ron “Bullies Kids for Wearing Masks” Desantis leading the charge.
In other words, Climate Denial has reached such a point that so-called Free Market Conservatives who claim to hate big government are trying to make it illegal for banks, investment firms, and financial institutions to make any financial decisions that acknowledges Climate Change is real.

hot tips, if there happens to be a strike.
1. buy gas and keep your tanks full. Crude oil is one of the main commodities shipped via rail, and prices will shoot up after labor unrest.
2. commuter railroads will shut down, also increasing gas prices and worsening traffic.
3. Trucking capacity will dry up in the US, so the vast majority of consumer goods being shipped over the road will experience significant delays. Get those Christmas gifts rn
The important thing to remember is that the rail strike will have significant long-term impacts, and the true impact will not necessarily be felt in the immediate aftermath. while it may seem unimportant now, this will have a monumental impact on the US economy and send the US further into a recession.
Prepare, but remember that it doesn’t have to be this way if we support our workers and advocate for a fair and just labor movement.

The fun Grey Area of buying offbrand fast fashion and fast-adjacent fashion, but then wearing it for years because you bought it for Broke reasons or Style I Love On Sale reasons.
Like... yeah, I do have some athletic wear and socks from Costco, some shirts from Hot Topic, even some blouses I bought from H&M before I learned how damaging it is.
But most of them are machine-washable cotton so I can wear them for uhhhhh [checks] I've still got Patagonia shirts from fifteen years ago, so I'll be wearing them that long if they don't fall apart from Lesser Quality and Rough Use
(Obviously, Patagonia is intended to last much longer than the general cheap-ish brands I'm talking about, but I needed an example of a known brand I've definitely had for that long to use as an example of how long I'd keep a shirt once I get it. There are others that I've had for a while but can't actually remember when I got them, like the Tinkerbell shirt.)
(I also do have some of my mom's blouses from the late 90s/early aughts so. I clearly don't care overly much about things going out of fashion.)
Like... I could do better than I am, but at least I'm doing better than the average?

For Hardline Communists and Marxists Who Don't Like Me Because of My Views Against Revolution
Those people, especially hardline communists and Marxists, who always talk about revolution or the necessity of carrying out a revolution, are like children. Like a child jumping on a chair and shouting "Revolution, revolution, revolution".
If their purpose in carrying out a revolution is only to overthrow capitalism and realize socialism, it would be better for them not to do that. They think revolution is the only way, so dogmatic. There is no urgency at all to carry out a revolution.
The revolution will happen if it has to happen. Social conditions determine a revolution to occur, and if a revolution occurs it must be final and truly change society. Revolution is not viable for now and day by day it becomes less and less relevant.
Socialism is an inevitability and it does not have to be realized through revolution. Socialism can be realized through many reforms and system improvements. This includes of what I call a revision of capitalism, which makes capitalism softer and better.
A collection of reforms can emerge an entirely different economic and political system, it will make capitalism softer and then capitalism will disappear. Ultimately, socialism will be realized because the realization of socialism is correlated with the evolution of capitalism.
What is the point of a revolution if the condition of society is getting better? Improving society through a welfare state and workers' rights is a must and this is part of socialism, no need for revolution. Focus on the goal, not the process.
When capitalism is declining at the same time socialism is increasing. Capitalism cannot disappear quickly and socialism cannot be realized quickly. We are already in the late stage capitalism, revolution is not necessary anymore, just increase more social welfare programs.
This is actually just a kind of clarity for those who don't like me because of my views against revolution, but also my annoyance with hardline communists and Marxists because they are the craziest ones who voice revolution.

so many words are flushed down the rhetorical toilet of ‘ao3 is a uniquely terrible platform whose lack of content moderation is an endemic moral failure’ without ever stopping to realize that under capitalism it is flatly impossible to run a moderately large website and moderate the content on it effectively--and that attempts to do so run on the PTSD of abused workers, often in the global south--and that if you actually want a website of any scale that can moderate any type of content, you need to start seriously reimagining how the web is structured economically
