For those who don't know, most of us Tamil usually(not everyone follows this) have vegetarian food during the working days. We have non-veg on either Saturday, Sunday or during travel.. Edit: I am a Tamil and I am religious, obv people eat whatever they want, no restrictions.. But this is what we usually follow :-) (I don't support BJP in case if you assume an one of those crooks)

[@vinaykumar-ld3yi]

Overpopulation: less organic food, full of pesticides, pfas . Rising prices, 80% have no jobs, very lowwages even after working for 14 hours, decreasing underground water, rising temperatures... Only those middle class Indians who are childless will be happy rest will suffer. Overpopulation is the mother of all problems & the reason for overpopulation is freebies given from decades without one child policy ( everyone had 3 children )

We design, patent, etc stuff, y'all make it as cheap labor, and we benefit from selling assets at premium prices. Simply, we are better than China. You don't create high value stuff.
