The common man?
Amidst the Hondas, Toyotas, Suzukis, Nissans, Kawasakis, Mitsubishis, Chevrolets, Hyundais, BMWs, Fiats and Renaults, he pushes on. Never complaining about fuel hikes. Unaffected by bandhs, union budgets, stock market storms and booming economies. Only perhaps throwing an angry yell at an auto driver for cutting him off.
you will be surprised to know how many of these people actually have bank accounts and invest in the stock market.
What will surprise you even more is the level informed political opinion that they form. They definitely are putting their kids through school and college. All in all they surely are on their way up as well.
