Out of the family way: If India has to move forward, the voting public must wean itself off the Gandhi dynasty | Chetan Bhagat:

"We all know free cash in hand works for voters."

Not if the voters know that they deserve more.

For example, if the governing party transfers $100 from the government treasury to each voter, should the voter be happy?

If a voter thinks he deserve nothing, then $100 pre-election money is a plus.

If a voter knows that he deserves $9000 citizen-ownership income every year, then he should be very unhappy and should look for a party that can give him his rightful money every year.
