Burn her and throw her in the Ganges, just so she feels at home.

Today, I read a piece by Dr. Samartya Sen, Nobel Laureate in Economics on Coronavirus (but which applies here) that Ms. Sawant clearly missed:

Tackling a social calamity is not like fighting a war which works best when a leader can use top-down power to order everyone to do what the leader wants — with no need for consultation. In contrast, what is needed for dealing with a social calamity is participatory governance and alert public discussion... The different types of hazards from which different groups suffer have to be addressed, and this is much aided by a participatory democracy, in particular when the press is free, public discussion is unrestrained, and when governmental commands are informed by listening and consultation...Listening is central in the government’s task of preventing social calamity — hearing what the problems are, where exactly they have hit, and how they affect the victims. Rather than muzzling the media and threatening dissenters with punitive measures (and remaining politically unchallenged), governance can be greatly helped by informed public discussion.

” ... migrating to the U.S. where she was radicalized by the inequality and poverty she saw ...”

She originally came to the US to cure her total blindness in her native India which was apparently successful.

I noticed that, too.

The irony.......

If she’s so concerned about inequity, she should go back home and fight it there and see how far she gets.
