A gazette notification for a price if a egg? Laughable. What next. Price for a onion or a carrot.
Laughable? Not really, may be only to your kind of simple-minded, uneducated brain. Eggs being an essential food item, like rice, potatoes, onions, dhal, etc. for example have come under price controls time and again historically, although I do not, under normal circumstances believe in socialist/communist ideal driven price controls. However, we are not right now living under normal circumstances, but facing a new kind of terrorism nationwide.
As such, for example, when the price of rice is controlled via gazette, technically you can say every grain of rice is price gazetted! All that aside, which might be too complex for your pea-brain, how is the toilet cleaning going on in white-man’s world? After all, you said you are making both Prez and PM put together by cleaning toilets in the west, so happy cleaning my dear bogus-SL refugee.
Horst,
We must forgive Ranjith.
He lives in Spain among farty Spanish Ladies, cleaning toilets but earning more that SL ExecP + SL PM.
We should learn to live with people of nil intellectual capacity; that is important in this instance.
Horst and Guy. If you all are not simple-minded, uneducated brain and intellective why is that your country iis in this state? Eating 1/4 of a egg You cannot afford a full egg), no fuel, no food, begging from rest of the world. One of the poor countries of the world.
Why? Why? Why?
