[www.keralites.net] Jobless growth-the lifeless growth!

 

Jobless Growth-Lifeless Growth

Before I proceed with my write up, let me make it clear that Modi is the greatest boon that happened to India today. The main and the subsidiary alternatives to him are just circus buffoons who as a part of comic do many things that create only laughter.

Now we are in the situation of jobless growth. It means that number of costly cars etc on the roads is increasing, while the number of livelihoods is depleting and as a result the amount of poverty is increasing. Suppose a factory is employing 10,000 people. It means that if each worker has a family of five, that fifty thousand people are depending on the factory for livelihood. The city of fifty thousand will need schools, colleges, hospitals, courts, lawyers, shops, markets..., easily another fifty thousand, that city being connected by transports of various types. Now suppose a management, finance etc expert arrived at the factory, and succeeded in making the factory automatic, with computers automation etc now employing only 500 people. That will be disaster to the city while the five hundred employees may be going round in very costly cars.

What will happen if the banks to window dress, as the NPAs have devastated them are merged and gradually only computers do all the work. Suppose every undertaking employs mainly computers and reduces the number of employees. But when the fixed deposits are eliminated by the elimination of employment in the economy, after all computers cannot be fixed depositors and if the few remaining fixed depositors are chased away from the banks by the tax on fake income, banks too will close down.

We are forgetting that the employees are the market, the very justification for the existence of any establishment. When the markets vanish, economic depression which is the sum total of millions of individual mental depressions, becomes the main cultural facet. Then there will be the IS economy which we are seeing in Iraq, Syria etc,when most people live in solidified terror as the normal state of mind, with girls in the slave markets etc.

Jobless Growth is the symptom of a gigantic peril. The exact phrase is the 'loot of jobs and livelihoods', a horrible atrocity on the people.

The phrase 'jobless growth 'is very deceiving. It is the euphemism for a horrible atrocity.

It is simply not possible to design and direct the economy of 130 crore people. There can be only the devising of switches that help the growth of jobs and not the intolerable situation of costly cars on the road and starvation in many homes. The biggest employer is nature and environment only and not industries and occupations that destroy the forests, rivers, air and water. On the basis of the geography of a place—the water bodies, mountains, forests, topography and other natural features, jobs that increase in number shall be devised, leaving to nature the work of creating more livelihoods. Let nature be unshackled. Nature is the best planner and executor of its plan. Cutting away forests which simply means the elimination of photosynthesis itself must be made a very big crime. If you cannot deliberately cut the heads of people for say constructing a road, then a tree also must be given equal status, in fact a more important status because every tree performs simply hundreds of life giving functions. The problem is those that are really needed, the people that know nature first hand, have no university degrees. The people that flaunt PhDs do not know nature.
