well .. you are the only one who thinks that joe..

and by the way..whats the point if your government cannot susidize it for poor..

that means that poor like me have to stay away from the monuments and education..unless ofcourse I come begging to you..??

what kind of equality that is..all are equal..but education can be afforded by some cannot by some..

dont you think the better way would be to make it a bit higher for some and bit cheaper for some..so that everyone can enjoy it !!

That's far too logical for a troll to comprehend.

"a bit"... you said it.
But I ask you: is 40 times more still "a bit"

Oh, of course we should help the poor. Thatīs what I do every time I am in India...

(hey, itīs called a WORLD heritage, isnīt it?)
Thats perhaps because Indian people themselves can not pay that much.

Oh... on second thoughts, at that price level... Indian people can not go inside the Taj which is good ... a lot less of a toilet they will make it.

That definitely is true! Theyīre really spoling all their own sites with excrements... think Iīll never get to know why they do THAT

you will never get it joe..

just try and figure this out..I am a 25 years old, settled into my profession..people who earn in same bracket as me are upwardly mobile in our society..

I make 5,000 to 7,000 euros in a year...and when I come to germany, do you feel thats good enough to survive a year..

I guess it would be good enough for hardly couple of months..

So can your government afford me for another 10 months...??

what are they doing for poor like me..is'nt it inequality that you can visit India and I cannot afford to go to Germany...

Troll?

Well, apart from the initial query about Air Deccan credit cards, your post history seems to amount to one long rant.

If you wanted to get something off your chest, I think you've succeeded.

Multiple posting is against forum rules, which rather nullifies this thread anyway.

Dual pricing has been discussed to death (not literally, unfortunately) and if you really want to dig up an old thread about it you should find it quite easy to find. And you'll find also, by the way, that broadly I agree with you about it.

All that having been said, I can't see this thread going anywhere useful, so i'm closing it.
