Why doing a lot of HARM ?
If the US has low tariffs and quotas on Indian products then it behoves the Indian to allow the US to export with the same unrestrictive import regulations .

I'm sorry, but what the hell is the world supposed to do?
They have turned the Ganges - their lifeblood - into a sludge of effluent and decomposing bodies, so that water is unusable.
They continually show no interest in taking care of their own environment.
They refuse to take action to curb their population.
They have 1.4 billion people. How much water does the world have to send, and continually send, before we ALL end up in the same situation?
