are all indians so hostile toward the usa? r u aware of us contribution to your country?
It has nothing to do with hostility towards the US as a country.
We want good relations with US but on equal terms where there is mutual benefits. The United States is not quite the 'donor' that international media makes out to be. They also reap rich dividends of having strong ties with us.
The problem comes when their policies start creating roadblocks for our country which has happened many times in the past and on most crucial of issues.
The recent toll US$ took on our economy directly and their government took indirectly through a weak puppet government under UPA is disastrous.
The problem is, dollar has no technical 'printing accountability'. Which means that they are free to print as much as they want and control the flows to such extent that it can destroy many currencies, particularly those countries that are weaker in manufacturing like we have been all this time.
China is immune because of its massive industrial complex that can churn out goods WORTH of all that is printed and therefore compensates it. Russia virtually calls the shots, sitting on some of the world's largest reserves of oil, gas, minerals, yellow cake and what not. Not to mention Russians are extremely powerful even today with an iron man who refuses to bow down to foreign dictat.
We on the other hand have been heavily dependent on service industry with almost zero manufacturing compared to what these our East Asian neighbours.
That has made us very vulnerable to tectonic shifts.
Lastly, I am anything but anti-US.
I am pro-India and will look for my country's interests, same as our new prime minister.
Its good to know other people's views.
