I would If I could 11: Using Income Tax to nullify itself and other social problems

  Bharat as of today spends too much time and energy on collecting IT (Income Tax) and sorting out legal issues. The number of tax payers amongst 1.4 billion people less than 22% people pay taxes and IT seems to be making people corrupt than contribute to the economy. A corrupt population won't question a corrupt system or party or politician. IT is also being used to hound, bully opponents of various kind.

Issues to solve:

  1. IT department being used as a bully by people with power to bully their opponents
  2. Women empowerment is still not upto the mark
  3. Sex ratio (less women per men)
  4. More parents are being neglected and put into old age homes
  5. Participation of women in workforce
  6. Increase women's participation in finance and economics
Solution: All tax collected of all women will go to her mother's account if she does not have her own income. After mother's death the beneficiary will be her father. If both of her parents are not alive then the same shall get credited to her mother in law's account and if she too isn't alive then it will go to her father in law's account. Ripple impact and effects are as follows.
  1. Parents will encourage their daughters to get higher education and be employed
  2. Girl parents do not have to worry about no one looking after them after their girl joins husband's family, especially those with no sons.
  3. Girls will not be seen as a burden and their parents will get the support till they are alive.
  4. Many women get abandoned by their husband when they get old, or they lose their husband and have none to look after. This will provide them a sense of security.
  5. Girls may now get encouraged to be part of the workforce from both parents and in laws family
  6. There will be an increase in the registration of businesses and other income generating sources to be listed in the name of their women (daughter, mother, wife etc.,) to get this tax benefit and when it happens it creates an additional financial/economical bondage between the women and men. 
Once this achieves the above fore mentioned goals, especially the positive impacts like F/M ratio, increased participation of women in workforce and economy and if the system later starts giving higher negative returns, too much of a burden to maintain than it is worth to retain, then we can abolish that too. Since now this is not an abolishment of IT, also bundled with a lot of benefits for women and feminism in general, there will be least opposition and most support.

stackexchange: Are shudras and women not allowed to chant Aum i.e Pranava?

since stackexchange is becoming like reddit and wikipedia where unknown , behind the mask moderators run these sites like dictatorship, I have decided to add answers here. Chanting and reading are different. Vedic Chanting has two parts - Tone and Recitation (Patha). It further has four different tones - Udatta, Anudaatta, Svarita and Deergha Svarita. Pathas are the styles of hymnal recitation. So unless your are are well skilled in these and your pronouncination, enunciation is accurate, you are not supposed to chant. Chanting the same mantras in different way produces different effects, different vibrations. Many a times a slight difference in spacing, intonation, pronounciation, enunciation produces different meanings. So unless you are classically trained to chant these, one shall avoid it but can read them with sound without making a sound, silently. Ex: Many in north india swap va & ba. Ravindranath tagore becomes rabindranath tagore. Many in north india also swap ra & da

stackexchange: Why do many Hindus eat meat and fish? Eating meat and fish directly violates the principle of Ahimsa

since stackexchange is becoming like reddit and wikipedia where unknown , behind the mask moderators run these sites like dictatorship, I have decided to add answers here. The meaning of ahimsa today unfortunately has been equated to non violence due to the lack of equivalent word in english. Just like atma is not sould, ahimsa is not non violence. It is a state of being. Meta is discouraged and not forbidden in hinduism. Today unfortunately meat has been associated with health and fitness. Let us have a look at the animals in the jungle. Elephant - biggest animal, most powerful animal, heaviest animal Rhino, hippopotamus, wild buffalo - big, powerful, heavy deer - fastest animal giraffe, camel - tallest animal tortoise - lenghty life horse - speed, vigor donkey - most hardworking Many of these vegetarian animals (elephant, rhino, hippopotamus, wild ox, wild bull) can easily defeat any tiger, lion. In fact no lion or tiger ever dare to do a one on one with any of them. You will notice

stackexchange: What does the demon kali staying in gold mean?

 since stackexchange is becoming like reddit and wikipedia where unknown , behind the mask moderators run these sites like dictatorship, I have decided to add answers here. I think you are taking it in the wrong direction. Many of hindu texts have sub layered meanings.So the parikshit permits him to stay only in places where there is prostituion gold (riches, display of riches) Alcohol (intoxicants which will affect your moral judgement) Gambling As you might have already figured out from the story, kali is non physical in nature and omnipresent. He can not only be present in many places at once but also many kalpas at once. So for easier understanding, think of him as the biggest influencer of immorality. Wherever these 4 things are there, there is a high chance that, the place and the people in it are immoral, unethical. Here are the same 4 things in islam and how it is restricted. Prostitution is prohibited in Islam. It is considered a form of zina, or adultery, which is a major sin
