My response :------ Are you implying that the hundreds of North
Africans, Nigerians and other west African migrants who brave the
oceans to become refugees are the future slaves who will become
economy betterers? What about the many goans who hie to get Port.
passports so that they can enter the European job market ?

Subject: [Goanet] The Scottish Rupee
Hi all
As you will have heard, the creation of the Scottish Rupee will no longer
take place. Bravo Scotland. The people of Scotland have decided we are
better off as United Kingdom.
This may be an example for the doubting Thomases in Goa that we can also be
better off united with all the other states in India as at the moment we are
looked upon as the most backward state. On my part, I breathe a sigh of
relief that the price of beer will remain steady.
When I am in Goa there is the urgency in the morning to get to the
television first to watch Thomas the Tank engine and all the creativity
needed along with the big fat controller to run a railway. This is before
others wake up and get to the television for the US dollar rate and sterling
rate to the rupee.
Today, if you agree, one can invade a country by sending them their currency
to exchange with the local money until there is no more to exchange. In
return its inhabitants can be imported as slaves paying their own way and
keeping the money go round cycle going.
