Sole proprietors, partnerships, and private corporations perform economic activity. Private corporations seem to be playing a greater role in India these days. Have private corporations come of age in India? Probably. We will wait and see.
Is the agricultural sector in India declining? Not quite. It might be possible that there is a surplus of farmers in India. The agricultural sector will restructure. Some farmers may have to give up agriculture completely. The more efficient farmers may be able to survive the competition. The good news is that private corporations in India seem more interested in getting into agriculture. The private corporations set up supermarkets and chain stores in India; and private corporations buy agricultural produce directly from the farmers, cutting out the middle-man.
In some sole proprietorships/family owned business, the death of the owner adversely affects the form of organization and assets; and there have been cases where the death of the owner terminates the business itself, with the family owned business employees risk becoming immediately unemployed. In sharp contrast, private corporations give continuity of organization and assets. Private corporations almost have an unlimited lifespan. It might be possible that private corporations may play a greater role in India’s economy in the future.
Like other nations, India’s commerce might have started with sole proprietorships, then moved towards partnerships, and now private corporations are playing a greater role. By now you can figure out that India’s economy is restructuring with private corporations/stockholders playing a bigger role. Yes, India is undergoing a retail revolution.
In short, there is a surplus of farmers in India. So there are not many opportunities in the agricultural sector. At least some farmers should give up on agriculture. Added to that India is undergoing a retail revolution and therefore some middlemen may become redundant too. We can no longer depend on agriculture to give employment to Indians; we have to find new sources of employment for Indians. There is a surplus of farmers in the agricultural sector, and so it is time to move to another sector. There may be some good news. Even a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. The next step for India may be Special Economic Zones (SEZ). Try SEZ’s. The nation has to shift to SEZ’s to give employment opportunities to Indians. The next employment opportunities would be in SEZ’s. The new hope is in SEZ’s. SEZ’s will become the new employers. Any political party that does not support SEZ’s must be naïve. We will wait and see how India handles herself.
With the agricultural sector experiencing a surplus and the SEZ’s opening up for employment, hopefully India would grow stronger economically in the coming decades and at the same time never forgetting that she is the nation that gave Mahatma Gandhi to the world. The land of Mahatma Gandhi will one day see fewer shortages and rationing. Ideally, there would be no shortages and no rationing in the whole world.
Okay. The era of supermarkets have begun in India. The role of the government and people of India is to remove all obstacles so as to encourage healthy competition between the mom and pop retail stores on the one hand and the supermarkets on the other hand. The less the government and people of India interfere in this competition, the better it is. There are some people who feel that the era of supermarkets would change India beyond recognition. Wait a minute. Does it mean that supermarkets will win and family owned business/mom and pop stores will lose? Not quite. It could be a win-win. We will wait a see.
What is in it for the Indian people? Well, watch the market well for better opportunities. Monitor the market well for better opportunities. Look for all the shortages and surpluses. The Indian people must move from state to state to seek better opportunities; and this is what the Indian people have been doing for decades.
What should the politicians do about the economy? The people are not stupid. The people do know how to take care of themselves. The people do not need the politicians to tell them what to do. I think politicians should take a break. I think politicians should stay home. Why don’t the politicians mind their own business and leave the market economy alone? The less the politicians do, the more the market economy can do; and the more the politicians do, the less the market economy can do. As much as possible we have to get rid of all these government monopolies. I think politicians should stay home; and there are lots of things the politicians can do at home. The politicians can watch television at home. The politicians can watch movies on DVD at home. The politicians can play ping-pong with their family members at home. The politicians can learn yoga exercises at home. The politicians can read a fiction story book at home. The politicians can take a nap at home. There are lots of things the politicians can do at home. In a free market economy, mobility of labor is an important factor. The Indian people do know how to move around and seek employment. No attempt should be made to discourage people from one state to relocate to another state. Let the market decide for itself. The people are smart enough and will figure out how to relocate, when to relocate, and where to relocate. In fact, relocating from one state inside India to another state inside India for better opportunities has been going on for decades. Your work environment is a workplace and also a school. As you work, you also learn. Please do learn as much as possible from your work environment. After you have learned as much as possible, if you want to get ahead, you can start looking for work at another location. If your employer does not pay you well then he will pay a heavy price when you finally leave and relocate to another job. After you learn as much as possible, you can start your own company and start employing people. So the purpose of becoming an employee is to become an employer eventually. Whether your employer approves it or not, you have to find a way to turn your work environment into a school for you. Yes, we should let the market decide how and where India’s manpower will be located and relocated; and as much as possible try not to leave India to look for work because India may need your services.
It might be possible that there may be competition between supermarkets and chain stores on the one hand and family owned business/mom and pop stores on the other hand. If you are working for a mom and pop store please make sure that you turn the work environment into a school for you. Please do learn as much as possible. Next, when you feel confident you can apply to work for a supermarket or chain store. If your employer does not pay you well, then you can quit and work for the supermarket.
If you are working for a supermarket please make sure that you turn the work environment into a school for you. Please do learn as much as possible. Next, when you feel confident you can apply to work for a mom and pop store. If your employer does not pay you well, then you can quit and work for the mom and pop store. Those who work for the supermarket can quit and work for the mom and pop store; those who work for the mom and pop store can quit and work for the supermarket.
Eventually supermarkets may find their own market niche, and mom and pop stores may find their own market niche; and this may be the win-win situation in retail.
When in doubt, please do ask one of the largest universities in the world, namely www.youtube.com. Please do go to www.youtube.com and type the words INDIA SUPERMARKETS.
It is all about jobs, jobs, jobs. Please tell all your friends to make plans to move to another state inside India in order to seek employment. Please tell all your friends not to depend on politicians and that it is better to relocate to another state to be employed. The bottom-line is that there should be no resistance to relocate, move, and travel inside India. The bottom-line is that there should be no opposition to relocate, move, and travel inside India. The future Indian will be the relocatable Indian. The future Indian will be the mobile Indian. The future Indian will be the traveling Indian. In a market economy, we should let the market decide how and where India’s manpower will be located and relocated; and as much as possible try not to leave India to look for work because India may need your services. In any case, several Indians have been moving from one state inside India to another state inside India for better opportunities for decades.
