Re: [IAC#RG] Time for the ACTION to start

 
Increasingly, "black money" is also what the spouse is able to save up separately, what the poor man is able to keep after the rulers have bled him try, what the middle class is able to keep aside for a rainy day.
 
It is increasingly not what our loot and scoot type upper class are raking in - that money has now been sanctified and brought back into India cleaned up by a variety of routes, including Mauritius.
 
Humbly submitted.

Black Money is simply money (legal tender) on which no taxes have been paid at some point in time. Yes, there is a definite correlation between black money and corruption but it is not a "strong" correlation.

To put it simply, eliminating black money in India will hardly do anything to eliminate corruption. What will happen is that the bribe money moves overseas (as most of it already has) to be spent there and benefit the economies of the foreigners who bribe our netas instead of India and Indians.

IAC's objective is very well defined - "To eliminate corruption wherever found by all means". This has not very much to do with black money.

Sarabjit, if this is the contention; what's IAC fighting for?
