Praxeology: My Reflexions on India

On 29th January, RBI governor D. Subbarao announced his quarterly review of credit and monetary policy in which he reduced the repo rate and cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 25 basis point. By doing this, he created more inflation in the already highly inflationary Indian economy. This policy now endangers the future of the Indian economy. It is fueling a massive economic bubble in various sectors like real estate and auto, which surely will burst in future. Indian people should prepare themselves for more hardships and pain in future.

They are coming with all kinds of phony paper gold schemes to lure public away from buying physical Gold. The recent RBI commission's Gold report ( here ) outlines some of these paper scam schemes. In above video, I analyze these schemes and their sinister fraudulent nature.
