It's because Canada imposes higher taxes and tariffs on cars. The government adds 21% VAT Tax and then up to 30% VRT Tax on top of that. Remember in Canada they have free health care and they have to fund it through taxes whereas in US you pay arm and a leg for health care services and...

About religious beliefs: "To each his own" Do what u want to do and don't force your religious views on others.

If you are a novice investor and just starting out then look for some of the so-called discount brokers like Scottrade, TD Ameritrade, Tradeking and Sharebuilder. These charge very low fees and are mostly directed at those looking to do their own investing and do not need any consultation...

Seema you started a good thread on a very important topic and must say presented your views pretty well. However one of the reasons this thread went from being a healthy discussion to a personal conflict of sorts is the way you chose to respond to other's post. Calling other posters point of...

I am not a great fan of Sehwag but his presence does make a difference in the performance of the Indian team. First two test matches you saw Dravid crawl at a snails pace and try and block everything. He had his mind made up that he was going to block all deliveries. When this happens the...

There is a difference between being educated and being literate. Just holding a degree in your hand does not make one educated. Education is a life long task as we are learning on a daily basis. But to get back to the discussion I would strongly disagree that education has played no part in...

I don't think i will quiet agree with this point of view. To say that all JATs are warrior-like brave and can't be as good as a Baniya in finance is utterly wrong. Similarly to say no Baniya can ever be a great warrior, leader or fearless is wrong as well. Caste has nothing to do with such...

We are going to need atleast one other bowler to step up for this long tour. Zaheer and Kumble are sure to have off-days so we need RP Singh to chip in with some early wickets. Sehwag will have to wait as you can't justify him taking anybody's position in the playing XI right now. He barely...

That made me chuckle as well...

Well i am not supporting sexism. I am merely responding to the fact that this is simply being portrayed as a problem in the JAT community alone which is wrong. The topic of women being oppressed in general is a different topic all together. We all know that much needs to be done to improve the...

Again you fail to prove that these problems are exclusive to the JAT community as you would have us believe. I am not saying the above things don't happen but i challenge you to name one other community where women don't have to go through similar difficulties. IT IS NOT A JAT PROBLEM RATHER A...

The original poster in this thread made a comment. No evidence or facts were provided to prove that JATs have oppressed on their women more than any other race. A lot of posters are asking her to further clarify her stance but she is being hard headed and just sticking to her guns. If you have...

Well if history is to be believed then women have been oppressed in all cultures and races. I think it might be a little unfair to single out JATs on this alone. Having said that this is no news and can't really understand the point of your thread. I guess you are venting out some anger..

I don't think you can put it any more accurately than what Naveen and Mr. Malik has done so in this thread. I would say that the most glaring of all these shortcomings is lack of cooperation among JATS. More often than not we are jealous of each other's success and not willing to help each other.

Great win for India and the best part they did it as a team. Different players delivering in different games. Incredible match and i must say that 20/20 is here to stay.
