Pro Corporate Goa Government

This Anti-Coal movement has clearly shown us where the Goa Governments priorities are, it is clear that their primary Goal is to satisfy the corporates who bank roll their election campaign and party. 

The Goa Government is using Goa as a coal transit point not for the electricity excuse  that they foolishly keep giving, but to help select corporates maximize profits by getting coal to their Industries. 

The Government has no care for the destruction to the environment nor livelihoods.  They are giving reasons to support their coal plans saying that they need to create jobs etc and Goans are opposing, can some one explain to me for instance how having jobs can be created by Goa as coal hub corridor! Can they really not come up with Environment friendly ways to encourage jobs and boost the economy, how many initiatives have we seen so far? 

 Goans must understand quickly that India/Goa is a pseudo democracy. It is a Government by the corporates and of the corporates and for the corporates. The people are just namesake pawns in this game. The sooner we understand this the sooner we can come up with solutions to address destructive governments.
