If you're new here, my name is Cara. Do not forget to like, comment, and subscribe. Y'all, it's been a go down this weekend. Okay, I have so many events to go to. I have to get ready for one right now. We're about to go to brunch. Okay, so that's why I had to get right. And also, it's the assay weekend. Everybody on mute. Look around, just me and my crew. I'm going to the Atlanta show night two. Yeah, y'all, I'm super excited. And y'all, last night, ATL, y'all, y'all wanted me. I'm so happy for my girl. Y'all showed off for my girl. That's my auntie. But anyways, yeah, I had to get right. I had to do my body care routine in the shower. I had to get these pits right. It was not looking cute. I can't be all hairy when I'm want to see Beyonce, okay? And what I use in the shower, y'all always ask me what is my body care routine and what razors do I recommend. Y'all, Athena Club. Athena Club offers high quality self-care essentials for women, ranging from deodorants, razors, multivitamins, including period care. They're for the girls. You'll be happy to hear that Athena Club is in target. So make sure you pick up this razor. It gives you the smoothest shave ever. And I love that this has a water activating serum on here with hyaluronic acid. So it gives you hydration to your skin. In the past, I've used razors where I shave and my skin is irritated and itchy and I don't like how my legs feel. So I have to really hydrate my skin. I ended up getting the razor kit from them, which includes two razor cartridges. A magnetic cook for easy storage for your shower, all for $10. They also have wax strips for the face and the body and razor refills. They're also also that target for under $12. They have high quality products for the fraction of the price. And also on their website, you'll be able to customize your own razor. They have so many colors for you to choose from and also they have limited edition ones. They do have a subscription service as well. This is their cloud shave foam and I love that it's so thick and it gives me a luxurious shape. This has aloe and oat extract in the ingredients. That's one thing that I can appreciate from Athena Club. They use clean ingredients. They have a whole page on their website dedicated to all the ingredients that they use because they're really caring about what we put on our body.

I have a brunch to attend to later. So let me your dress in. I'm going to check in back with y'all once I get ready. And I'm not doing too much. That's why I really took the time out to do my skincare body routine because I don't want to do too much. It's hot out in a stay time and I'm already going to get ready for the weekend to cancel later. So, but yeah, I'll check with y'all in a minute. Okay y'all. So this is the final look. So local European top. We're walking in Bottega shoes in my Louis bag. Puzzle bag and these glasses are from Amazon and the earrings are from Y'all, let's go. Years ago they had to A&R men to tell you what to play how to play it. You know where the disc goes around just went to the studio and we did it. We had champagne in the studio back and did it. So we hope you enjoy listening to this album half as much as we enjoy playing it for you. I did it.  Everybody's cute. Hey hey, gorgeous. Oh, your lighting is really good over here. Thank you. Skin is skinning. Yeah, no, your skin looks amazing. Okay. Everybody looks good. Say hey y'all. Cute. What should I get for you here? Okay, can I get the Netflix? We'll just get right into it. I need you to have a case. I had to take it off because yesterday I wasn't making a tits out and I have a mic now. I have a mic so you have to plug in the little mic. The little mic, yeah. I was wearing a hair tic-tac. I should have brought it today so I could be like so what do you have on? Right. No, but the USA one is actually getting a little spicy. It is the quality. It's the lighting. It's too bright in the UK. I mean, it's too bright in the USA. I like how UK is like dark and like sexy. Yeah. No, that's why I have to stop. Okay. She's really not like... She's like... She's like... She's not gonna be every single time. Brunchin' with her mom. Yeah, I love me too. I just got into them when I went to Planta. Planta is so good. Wait, have you been to Miami? No. That's the first place you've been to. Really? Miami one is really good. The Planta in New York is good too. This gives it that little flavor. Okay. Let me introduce myself. My name is... Don't play with me. Wait, I saw Tina. I saw Tina jamming last night. Tina knows. She is... Why doesn't Beyonce blog like her? She be like... Why can't Beyonce do this? I know she'll help. I know she'll help. She can't interact with everybody. Everybody. She don't care. Wait, did you see the security helping her over the gate one time? Yeah, I was like... She was like... She was like... Y'all and let it all out. Um... It was silent. Wait, let us hear it. She gave us instructions. Let me show you. Everybody around me, I'm like... Y'all say the word. I feel like there's like... Oh my god. He said... Wait, let me show you something. Let me show it to somebody. The number is like... So my Uber just picked me up from... So I just left brunch with Revolve. I'll give you five stars on the app. I just got from having brunch with Revolve. It was super cute, super intimate. That's me, all the creator girls in person.  So I rather just get it out. So... That's where we're going. And then I have to go get to the tailor and get my pants I'm wearing for tonight. So... Let me get in, girl. See, the skin is skin-eating, baby. Ooh, good thing I did not take these glasses off. I'm gonna talk to her later. When I get to the... Mercedes Benz stadium. Y'all, so I'm on my way to go get merch in my heels. I'm gonna be hurt so bad. Watch out here, my girl. My girl, J. Check the hair. Don't play with her. You're so welcome. I'll see you tonight. Yeah. Really? K-I-R-H. Yeah. And the O-M-I-N-I. There it is. I gotta get y'all's Instagram. They have that one in five. Yeah. Hey, girls. So now it's time to get ready to go see Beyonce. I'm so happy I went and got her a shirt, y'all. Because I think I'm finna wear that tonight. And fold her up. I can't cut my girl. I can't do it. So I'm gonna wear that like a crop t-shirt with these cute pants I got from Zara. They're so cute. And... My cowboy hat. I'm excited. But yeah, I'm about to do my makeup. It's only six o'clock. But we're gonna pre-game at Aliyah's house and then go to the Mercedes Benz arena. So... Mercedes Benz is cracking. And I'm super excited. Oh my god, y'all. I don't know if I'll put y'all on this lip. What is this? Lip. Dr. Dennis Girls lip plump and repair treatment. Y'all, Dr. Dennis Girls literally be hitting. Obviously, I already have full lips. But sometimes during the day, I swear to you, my lips will feel like not hydrated. I'm having lip gloss and stuff and then yeah, it just doesn't feel hydrated sometimes. But this little baby, it plumps your lips. It's supposed to be like a lip injection replacement, which I would never replace, honestly. But y'all, this works so good. It plumps your lips and gives it hydration. It's so good. And obviously it tingles, but it's not unbearable tingle. But, yeah. So, this before. And they just make them look so much more juicy and plump. Which I love. But yeah. Anyways, I'm going to watch Love Island. And it's going to be a little spicy, the US one. I know a lot. Hey y'all, so I just got dressed for the concert. So this is what I have on. So I have on my cowboy hat from RB. And then I'm just going to wear this clear bag. And then I have my girl on my shirt. And then these Zara pants, y'all. I picked them up today. I don't know if I'm losing more weight or not. But they're still big. So I had to improvise. Y'all are not about to fit in this clear bag. So y'all cannot come with me. Unfortunately. Where is my shirt? Oh yeah. This is the fit. I'm going to wear it off my phone for the rest of the time. Oh my god, this is so cute. Super cute. So this is the full outfit. And then I'm just going to wear my phone. See y'all, this is staying open. Oh, and this is what I had to do with the anyways. Let's go. Different. And I'm getting prepped before. It's going to be a busy week. Today is work day, girl. I woke up early. This room was a complete catastrophe. It was so bad. So I had to pick it up. And obviously this is where I like to edit sometimes. So yeah, I had to be organized. But yeah, this is going to be a work day. And yeah, I'm super excited for y'all to see the next video of this trip that's coming up. I just did my morning affirmation. I have to do my morning affirmations. I'm sorry. And I cannot be on my phone. Like, it's just I love having slow mornings. I love having mornings to myself. It's my time to compress and get ready for to enter this crisis. Did my little doodle on my iPad. But yeah, I'm just going to be here for the next couple of hours. I have some tiktoks. I have to edit. I have to edit this. Turn it in. And I have to edit a whole vlog. Yeah, it's time to hire somebody because it's just a lot sometimes. It's really a lot. It can take your whole day away. But at the end of the day, this is what I do for work. But I enjoy editing. But it could be way more beneficial if I always have an editor to have things in rotation always flowing out. Because yeah, anyways, this is where I'll be. Where I'll be. Let's get it. Good morning, everyone. Welcome back to It's the next day, girl. Yeah, yesterday, y'all, I didn't do nothing but work. I was up until like 6am, y'all. I don't know. I didn't even have no coffee. I was just up editing. And then I have to go back home and edit some more. But anyways, it's about 10 o'clock.  And oh my god, y'all. I gotta run to um, Sephora too real quick to get an item. But I need to check my cycle bars this whole thing. Me and my mom are supposed to go on a walk today. But anyways, y'all, I woke up sick. Like so sick. Yesterday, I wanted to go to the last Beyonce concert in Atlanta. So bad, like four times the charm. I knew something was up cause, yeah, I followed one of her dancers. And she was like, y'all get ready for ATL night three. It's gonna be a party. And I'm like, they don't never post like extra stuff on the show day. And I'm like, I feel like something is gonna happen. Like something is telling me to go to the show.   Like I love Beyonce too, but stop it. She don't know the hype yet cause I've been trying to ask her does she want to go to the concert. She was like, no, I'm not finna be around all them people. But I am so upset y'all. She performed Drunk in Love all up in your mind and thick. Do y'all know how much I love Drunk in Love? And she played the Dubai version. I was like, what? I like somebody, I just felt cheated.  I was like, wow, Beyonce really? But she did, she said Atlanta was the loudest and Atlanta brought that energy so she had to like, you know go hard for the last show. I definitely did my due diligence when it came to I'm sorry y'all, but I have to go to Walmart show. I have to go to Walmart show in Club Renaissance. But I probably won't vlog or nothing like that. I probably won't even get super dressed up. I probably just go and enjoy the moment, honestly. And soak it all in because I never know when I'm going to see her again. And obviously I grew up, grew up listening to Beyonce. My mom was blasting her music so it just hits different in person. Like now I'm grown and I'm really able to like do whatever I want. And obviously this is her first tour since like I'm gonna run. And I don't think I don't know why I didn't go to that tour. I think I was still like living back at home and I wasn't like able to be financially stable but now it hits different because I am. Yeah, I'm just forever grateful that I'm just able, you know. Anyways I'm about to go in the laser place so let's go. It's so hot It's so good. I just made it to Sephora in Pops because they said it wasn't stock here. I need some already. I feel like my breath is out of time. I need some to drink. But my girl Kiana is helping me out. Love her. But I can't find it. Is it this? But also I do want to see the fancy skin tint because I'm not doing the most on this trip. So y'all I'm by the Spoken Skin Tint Blur Normally what color am I? It's a little dry because they are open. It goes on like this. It's dire. Oh I don't know why I thought I was seeing. I need to go over there real quick. Thank you boo. I'll have to go over there. Okay this is cute and savage. Is they giving color match? I don't know. But we gotta go to a different place. Okay y'all, I found it. So they have two to choose from. I think this is the darker one he's been using all the time. It seems good. This is fire. So this is the darker one she's on vacation. And this is the original. She's glossy. So I just got in the car and just to compare. Yeah this is fire. So I did get the regular one because I'm gonna be tan anyways. But I just wanted something to give me a nice natural shine. Nice. And it's all sold out everywhere. So I just really wanted to get it before. And Linux station got a lot of stuff. So if y'all are in Atlanta and y'all need stuff from Sephora come to the one in the Atlanta station because I don't think a lot of people know about this one yet. What is poppin? We are on our way to drew a hot girl walk. Y'all I had to bring out this fanny panty. I remember I was dying for this bag. I barely wear it anymore. But I have to start. This is gonna be my hot girl bag. My hot girl walk bag. Anyways it's early in the morning. I wanted to go for a walk because today is hip hop Wednesday. So I wanted to do my walk. And then I'm gonna do a cycle bar. So yeah. I asked my mom if she wanted to come. She was still half way asleep. So it's pretty early. I want to get out here before maybe they got headphones. But I have my wrist kit. My AirPods. Y'all see me get headphones in the last vlog.  I gotta keep up with this. Headphones is too expensive. And also I'm going on my trip. So obviously I want headphones for that. But god dang. And then we're gonna be on our way to Chastain Park. That's where I like to walk. The whole circle around the park is one hour. Like an hour. Perfect. And then I'm coming back and then yeah we have facials. Cause my mom needed an appointment. So we're going to Mirimad Love Shea.  Thank you God for another day for blessing me for waking me up this morning. Thank you Jesus. Hey y'all. I forgot to take y'all with me on my walk. I totally forgot about y'all. I'm so sorry. I was just enjoying the moment y'all. But I had an amazing walk. I just got a clean juice. Y'all they know me here. She upgraded me. I just feel so good today. Anyway I'm finna go home. Shower really quick. And then make my way to Shea Mirimad. Can't wait to get a facial. I need this right before. Oh my god there's so many right here y'all. Okay so the reason I am in awe is cause I keep seeing dragonfly y'all. Like I keep seeing them. And I really feel like I'm in the season of changing. I've been seeing them so many times and they're just grouped right here. It's crazy. But I think that's what seeing a dragonfly means I think. I'm sure. Yeah. Anyways So y'all I just got to Mirimad and I'm with Dawn. You look good girl. Okay skin is on point at least the period. So we're about to get started. Can't wait. She don't have any allergy sensitivities to any products. No. What you been eating? Why? My pores or something? How's your dairy sugar? Oh I don't I'm not big on dairy and sugar. What happened here? I had scratch. It's a scab. It's probably gonna come off. Okay. But it was like a little minor accidental scratch. Your skin looks good. You've been hydrated for sure. Thank you. I only put sunscreen on this morning because I went for my walk last morning. Okay. Okay. Like sunscreen. Very good. You done any H&S being changed? Written odds in the last week? Um I did one last week because I do an at home one by Shani Darden. She has her own peel. So I did that like a week ago. And I really like that. But I haven't this week. And normally I sometimes use Dr. Dennis Gross AHA BHA pads. The pads? Yes. It's so good. They literally transform my skin so much. Really? Yes. I have bad acne before I moved to Atlanta. I know what's going on. Wisconsin. Wisconsin. This brand was just from Wisconsin so when there is like a performer or somebody coming to the club that's when you know you're going to see everybody so you definitely got to step. Because everybody's going to be outside. That is cracking on like Sunday so that's like pretty. Maybe scared of the males. I don't like male Pisces. But the women? Scared. So you know we just came from Mary Mad. Man no more. My face is happy. Happy happy girl. Very good. Breathe in. She said I got some beautiful skin. I got it protected from the sun. Do you have SPF on? Yes. Liar. She put it on me. What are you talking about? No. Before though. Why would I have SPF on before when I'm coming to get a face show? That's bull. How do you write it? She on callin' to Mary Mad.  Hey y'all so I just got home.  But um yeah we just went for face shows and then what are we doing? We just came back here. But y'all 50 rides for cycling. I've been sacrificing and I've been working hard so huge shoes to come swimming. Are you going to wear that to a rehearsals? No I'm not. That's how I feel about it. But cycling is not easy y'all. 50 rides is crazy. But I'm just so happy that I'm so dedicated to it. I'm consistent and also the ladies there make it so easy to just go. I just love the community there. Everybody so nice. And to play with no point. So gotta be, gotta be. Anyways. I just did a skincare. Skin is looking good from Mary Mad. Make sure y'all go. And then yeah I'm about to work on some stuff. I'm about to put my other light on. And I'm going to take my night time vitamins. My mama set them out here. I love when she's here y'all. She literally be taking care of me. Even not that I don't take care of myself. It's just a little easier. I see you laid out my pills. Where? Right there. That was for the ones. I didn't lay that out. That was the ones you could count on. Oh I'll just eat these. Thank you. Y'all she is making me dinner. It's so easy. Tonight's dinner is a BLT. Last night was pancakes and bacon. But so good. It's just on a almond flour tortilla with bacon and lettuce. A BLT but without the bad bread. Oh and tomato. Hey y'all. It is the next day. I believe yesterday I was working on it in this morning. So we have a productive day starting. But right now is day one of me actually preparing for a vacation. So I'm on my way to go get my venus treatment. Y'all see me go to pharma beauty so many times. And if y'all go there tell them I'll send you. But this is basically where I get lymphatic drainage and stuff. But I've been doing venus treatments for the last couple months and get rid of unwanted fat. But yeah. So I just like to do this all the time before I go on vacation.  But I did this. I've shown this numerous of times. But yeah. But I'm running a little behind. So let me hurry up. So I just have to change into these you know itty bitty, teeny paintings. But this is the machine. This is a radio frequency device. Okay. A little bit more. Oh okay. What it's doing is it's taking care of localized fat cellulite and it helps with skin tightening. Okay.  Really good after surgery as well. Not like immediately after but right shortly after like about I would get it three months. But especially localized fat and skin tightening for sure. Yeah. I love it here. And they also give you flat tummy tea for on the go like a little detox tea. And they also do lymphatic drainage here y'all. They have a lot of sculpting options. So make sure you check out Forma Beauty and you can let them know I sent you to. Why is the prepare for a vacation so stressful? Jeez. It's just literally just trying to make it to all your appointments on time. So I'm on my way to go get my nails done. I cannot wait for this at y'all. It's gonna be salt. Can y'all. Excited. Excited is not even like the word. Because obviously I've been doing my basic French tick you know because I ain't going over here. I ain't showing out front nothing. I ain't gripping nothing. So I don't have to do it extra. You know. But we're going we're leaving. We're out. We're taking flight. So I need to you know up it. And I can't wait. I'm excited. So I'm on my way to Tim I got my waist snatched earlier today. It's looking real snatched. I don't even want to eat nothing. I'm going to take this hair out though because tomorrow I have a hair appointment. So. But yeah girl let's go. Let's go. Tell me where to go. Y'all so we got one more nail to go but this is in between said they're not doing it because we're adding a gem to this thing but they look so good.

spanks come in time my back bound shapewear yeah yeah I gotta snatch somebody up this is cute I don't feel like one is alright y'all so we're back home okay y'all so I'm back home now and before I get in the shower I'm gonna take my hair out my hair appointment is at three it's one o'clock so and this is so easy to take out y'all I used to have so many complications when taking on my quick week but Deja knows what she's doing and she literally glows it glues it down like a wig so I really like that but anyway so number one thing to make sure that I do on vacation before I even go on the trip is make sure my skin is clear okay I don't have time for breakouts when I get home I don't care if I get a breakout but during the vacation no so I love to do the shiny darting triple acid signature peel as a part of my exfoliant routine during the week because I like to exfoliate my skin at least once or twice a week it's just a peel and it's so quick to do oil is so easy so it literally comes in a package like this if you watch my skincare routine y'all know and every time I use I swear to you it makes my skin look super glowy so good clear I don't know and I just feel like my skin is like extra clear so I do have some left over from the last peel I did I don't normally use all of it because you only need a thin layer so I'm just gonna go in with this so all I have to do is wash it off in the shower duh duh like duh this is done it ain't over y'all this song this gospel song it ain't over by it ain't over by marita brown color y'all if you are ever feeling discouraged and feel like you can get through something just know everything is in God's timing and nothing is greater than your father God because he's gonna get you through it okay and I came across this tiktok the other day it was just saying that don't think nothing is greater than your father God that one thing that you're holding on to that you think is so important don't think that's a great that God is greater than that because God is greater than anything so he is gonna get you through because you won't always have him regardless and it's so funny I remember when I could not let my ex go like I could not let him go at all but I had to trust in God that you know he got me and that he'll get me through you know it's just crazy to reflect on a lot of situations that I've been through because ooh girl it was a song and you can also put this on your neck too I'm running out this is like my last one and I really like to and it does sting a little bit but it's tolerable now that our face is all washed up so you let this sit for one minute literally like 60 seconds nothing over do y'all remember when JT said bitch I get my hair and makeup done every motherfucking day y'all hoes gotta wait till y'all motherfucking birthday to fuck with me and even on your birthday hoes you not fuck with me so well she forgot to add vacation because the girls ain't never missing a hair appointment for a vacation okay so let me go get my hair snatched and get these bundles in so we can enjoy the sun I originally was supposed to get braids but I was like you know what let me just get some bundles and some curly hair because I want to be a mermaid in the water you know the vibes I hey boo my girl Deja she got me right in I had this certain hairstyle saved for the longest time that I've been wanting to do and this was the perfect time to make it happen am I single? yeah I know I'm not choosing nobody but my man no why would you want to do that you can't though we've been together for like 10 years yeah we

thing they gonna do in these buckhead sweets is get they hustle on baby and I salute and these bundles are also from DH Hair boutique the bundles are gorgeous I don't know about y'all but I love me a

Welcome to the Hindi News Analysis by Shankar Ayes Academy. The list of topics chosen for today's discussion along with the page numbers is given here for your reference. Let us take up this opiate article which talks about a conversation between experts regarding India's neighborhood policy. So in this discussion, they talked about the relations of India with neighbors and what are the recent developments and how Indian relations with Nepal-Bangladesh have deteriorated in the recent years. So let us have this discussion. The relevant syllabus is given here for your reference. See for any nation, the real test of foreign policy is in the handling of neighbors. This is mainly because our neighbors play a very important role in protecting our interests as well as sovereignty. So coming to India's case, we face challenges in relations with most of our immediate neighbors. Say China, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal up to some extent with Sri Lanka. For example, we are having issues with Pakistan right from independence with China from 1960s and with Nepal with respect to recent changes in map and Sri Lanka in 1990s with respect to LTTE and Bangladesh that is Rohingya issue. So almost with all the neighbors, we are having some kind of disturbances. So what experts are saying on these current problems of India? Firstly, they tell that India's current foreign policy is episodic, which means like our foreign policy is an episode of a serial. So it changes from one episode to other episode. So it can be said that we take decisions with respect to our neighbors by taking into consideration only our domestic situations. This means we do not have a stable policy and according to authors, this is not a good idea because domestic drivers change frequently and have most of the times put foreign policy objectives to a lower position. For example, just now we talked about Bangladesh and CAA. CAA is a domestic issue but it has affected the relations with Bangladesh. Second, more often our relations with neighbors are getting deteriorated since we accuse them of engaging with China. But naturally, all these countries have a policy of balance relations with their neighbors be it India or China. Moreover, the world as a whole and South Asian region in particular has become an open competitive market. That means all these countries in our neighborhood that once depended and relied much on India are now adopting a first come first serve policy. It means if China is coming with a good policy, they are ready to accept China's initiatives. Third, others talk about advantage which China has. See they opine that most of the countries which have bilateral relations with India's neighbors are working in parallel without coordinating with each other. For example, in Nepal, the Britain, Japan, US and India had their own development cooperation programs. But they did not cooperate and coordinate with each other and often conflicted with each other on different issues. For example, US or Japan may be supporting projects which are not necessarily aligned with India. So China took this opportunity and used a divide and rule approach to break India from its neighbors. And this has benefited China in bringing Nepal into its site. Fourth, experts opine that South Asia is one of the least integrated regions with tremendous deficits in terms of infrastructure, connectivity and interdependence. And it also exposed to various geopolitical competition dynamics. For example, China is gaining more importance in the region through BRI, maritime Silk Road, etc. But according to others, India is not doing well on connectivity and regional policies. Even though we are part of many regional multilateral groupings like SARC, BIMSTEC, even BBIN, that is Bangladesh, Bhutan, India and Nepal, they are not working well. And also SARC is outdated and does not even serve the complex fluid regional cooperation agenda any longer. For example, you take Pakistan, a member of SARC, has taken a very different approach to regional connectivity. It sees itself as a hub between China and the Gulf or Central Asian regions. And due to the bad relations with Pakistan, India is not able to engage well with Central Asia or West since Pakistan is a blocking factor for India's connectivity. See, we all know that India to connect with Afghanistan, we had to go through Iran. And due to this, India has taken a pragmatic policy or realistic policy by engaging more towards the south, that is on Indian Ocean side and east with Southeast Asia. For example, India revived BIMSTEC and worked on BBIN Co-Dilateral for a framework on motor vehicle and water governance. So what are the suggestions given by the author? See, first they suggest that it is extremely important that our engagement with our neighboring countries should not be episodic or event oriented. Rather, it should be process oriented. We should have a plan for continuous engagement at various levels. Also, India's diplomacy should align in a manner that does not make our neighbors feel marginalized. And also, India should work on making clarity on policies and creating interdependence in this region. It is even said that South Asian region is the least integrated region across the world. Next, we should work for better connectivity with our neighbors with better planning and infrastructure. And more importantly, this connectivity should be linked with software of connectivity so that connectivity can be made realistic and it does not have any shortcomings. So what are we saying? Our procedures for allowing cargo or people to our neighboring countries are still archaic compared to what is found in Southeast Asia or Europe. If you take Europe, most of the constraints in connectivity or people transit are removed with the help of automation and softwares. So that is what we mean, software of connectivity. Also, we should give them importance by providing them national treatment with respect to the use of our transportation network, ports, exports, imports. So we have to allow them to use our infrastructure. Finally, in developmental activities of India, in our neighboring countries, India should work closer with like-minded partners like U.S., Japan, U.K., which are also democracies. And finally, all conflicts should be resolved through a process of coordination and integration. So these are the different opinions of experts with respect to India's foreign policy when it comes to neighborhood. See, we are having a policy called neighborhood-first policy where in India will give high preference to our neighbors. So these policies should be made even more realistic so that our neighbors won't get attracted towards China. So this is all about the discussion of this news article. Let us move on to next news article discussion. This news article is about the response of Union government on a proposal of election commission of India to eradicate the criminalization of politics. See, election commission proposed an idea of life ban for MPs or MLAs who were convicted for certain offenses under representation of People Act 1951 and who are convicted for corruption. It endorses that such criminals should not participate in election anymore and they should not form or become an office bearer of a political party. While this is a welcome solution to champion the cause of decriminalization of politics, the Union Ministry of Law and Justice has countered election commission based on some arguments. We will try to understand what is the stand of law ministry in this context. The court case is an advocate filed a petition in a Supreme Court that a life ban on conviction should uniformly apply for members of judiciary, executive and legislature and there should not be any discrimination of one from the other. The government states that an elected representative of people cannot be equated with public servants or civil servants who are banned for a lifetime on conviction. So generally when public servants are convicted, they will be banned for lifetime in a government job or anything like that. But when it comes to MLAs MPs, the ban is only for six years. So the government said that disqualification under RPA 1951 for the period of imprisonment and six years thereafter is enough. It means if I am convicted for two years and after two years I have to wait for six more years and I can participate in elections again. So this stand of government is criticized as taking a soft stand against the criminals. See as said before, a government employee is debored for life on conviction for offenses under IPC, money laundering, foreign exchange violation, unlawful activities prevention act, check cases, etc. But a legislator, either MLAs MP or MLC is only disqualified for the same offenses for a specified period only, that is conviction period plus six years. So there is a difference in treatment for the same offenses. So the law ministry's another argument is that legislators are not bound by specific service conditions. They are bound by their oath to serve citizens and country. They are bound by propriety, good conscience and interest of the nation. So they demand a difference in treatment and punishment for the conviction for same offenses. So somewhere in your mind article 14 might be floating that equality before law and equal protection of laws. So we have to wait and see how Supreme Court handles this case and gives its final judgment. Let us move on to next news article discussion. So these two news articles, one from main page and other from editorial page are about the ongoing negotiations between the former organizations and the union government over the three form bills. The relevant syllabus is given here for your reference. See firstly these three bills were already passed by the parliament and also received ascent of president in the September of this year. So no longer their bills, their acts. The three acts are farmers produce trade and commerce act 2020, farmers agreement on price assurance and farm services act 2020, essential commodities amendment act of 2020. So these are the three acts which were either brought in or amended in the recent months and we have discussed the positives and negatives of these acts many times in the last three to four months. So today's question is why the farmers are protesting. See several farmer groups argue that the proposed changes to EC act that is essential commodities act would ultimately benefit only the middlemen and traders. Actually the amendment is government is relaxing the hoarding regulations. It means now traders can store the green and can sell them when price is good. So it would ultimately benefit only the middlemen and traders. See these people will buy the produce in the harvest season when prices are generally lower, they store them and release them when prices are high. So farmers are not going to benefit anything only the traders and middlemen are going to benefit. And coming to opening of agree marketing outside Mondays, farmers are fearing that private companies will establish private Mondays which will have no government regulation. One of their biggest concern is provision for contract forming which they fear will be exploitative as well as the corporates may take over the farmers line. So the farmers also believe that these acts are first step towards elimination of minimum support price program or MSP regime. They cite the Shanthakumar committee recommendation to stop bonuses on MSP paid by states to farmers and adopt cash transfer system. So the committee said that replace MSP with DBT that is direct benefit transfer. So coming back to the article it says that even the fourth round of talks between union government and farmer leaders ended in conclusively. But farmers are very stubborn and they are not accepting anything less than repealing all the three acts. So this is what the main page article says. Coming to editorial it says why the farmers are continuing protest against the government's assurance that MSP will be continued. Ironically at the time when Punjab-Haryana farmers are protesting in Delhi government is procuring lot of food grains from Punjab and Haryana. So even the government is saying that we are procuring grains farmers are worried that in the future MSP may be removed or replaced. So next question is why only the farmers of Punjab-Haryana up to some extent UP are worried about these acts. Why not farmers of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Odisha which are also important producers of rice are not worried. See in 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 in the two years nearly 88% of paddy and 70% of wheat in Punjab and Haryana has been absorbed through public procurement. In contrast in the other major paddy states like AP, Telangana, Odisha, UP only 40% of rice production is procured by public agencies. So it shows that farmers in Punjab and Haryana are heavily dependent on public procurement and assured price through MSP. Because of this heavy dependence on MSP and PDS the farmers are worried that the government may remove or replace MSP and PDS. So this is why the protests are largely in the states of Punjab-Haryana. See the solution suggested by Aadho is that the government shall continue procurement. Because more than the farmers government needs procurement to meet its targets under PDS and National Food Security Act. So author tells that there are nearly 80 crore NFSA beneficiaries and an additional 8 crore migrants who need to be supported under public distribution system. So to feed the poor government needs an uninterrupted supply of grain which comes mainly from Punjab and Haryana. So for this reason author says that more than the farmers government needs the procurement system and MSP. And as we all know the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the livelihood of many poor people and it also pushed many people into poverty. So the government has earmarked much larger quantities for public distribution. So we have discussed the easing of restrictions under EC Amendment Act. So there is a possibility of large scale hoarding which means traders may store the grains and will allow them into market only when prices are high. So government cannot go to open market where the price is very high for procurement. So it has to rely on public procurement especially from Punjab and Haryana. This is because nearly 35% of rice, 60% of wheat procured across India in last 3 years has been from these states and not just that even 50% of total coarse grains also came from these two states. So Punjab and Haryana are very very important to run public procurement as well as public distribution system in the country. So dismantling the procuring system is neither in the interests of farmers nor the government because both needs procurement system. So the solution is to reach out the farmer groups and assure them of the indispensability of MSP procurement system. There are even opinions that MSP should be legally mandated. It should be brought in as a statute. But we have to wait and see what government is going to do and how farmer groups are going to fight against the government. And there are many news articles in today's newspaper regarding this farmer protest, mainly the role of women in the protest. See women are not just taking part in the demonstrations. They are also mobilizing rations, preparing food for those agitating against the formulas. So the news article titled, Feeding a protest women keep the fire in the belly and hurt the burning. So we can relate these two times of freedom struggle wherein women played a very important role in supporting the protest movements. And this news article titled, Farmers refused to break bread with the government says that the farmers didn't even take the food offered by the government during the discussion stages. In the current negotiations, government has offered food for the farmers, but they have strongly said that until you repeal the three laws, we are not going to take anything. And this news article is about Punjab. See immediately after government has brought in those, Punjab has passed their own legislation, which negates or undermines all the changes brought by the central government. But this bill is pending because the governor has not given assent. Only after governor gives assent, Punjab bill can override union government's farm acts. Let us move on to next news article discussion. If you see this editorial, this talks about the Iran challenge. So we know that there is some problem going with Iran in West Asia. See broadly, there are three power centers in West Asia. One is Israel, other one is Saudi Arabia and third one is Iran. We know that Israel and Saudi Arabia are having good relations with U.S. And for many years, the relations between U.S. and Iran are not fruitful. But in 2015, what happened was, then president, Mr. Obama, along with five other nations, signed a deal with Iran. It is called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. So in 2015, the P5 countries, China, France, Russia, UK, USA, along with Germany and with European Union had signed a deal with Iran, which is called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. So this plan ensures that Iran's nuclear program will be exclusively peaceful. It means Iran should not develop nuclear weapons. We should use nuclear technology only for civilian purpose, that is electricity, medical diagnostics, etc. So JCPOA imposed restrictions on Iran's nuclear enrichment program. So this was the case in 2015. But immediately after Trump became president in 2016, U.S. unilaterally withdrew from this deal and also imposed economic sanctions on Iran. And not just that, U.S. even became closer with other power centers that are Israel and Saudi Arabia. In the recent days, we have already seen that the Islam nations are recognizing the Israel for the first time. As a result, the relations between Iran and U.S. became even worse. But today's editorial expects that the new president-elect Joe Biden may reverse this U.S.-Iran relations. Even in the election campaign, Joe Biden promised that U.S. will be back into the Iran deal. But he also said that he will seek to extend the restrictions on Iran that is 15 years, according to JCPOA, and also discuss the Iran's malign activities in West Asia. So this broadly suggests that Mr. Biden, similar to Trump, is expecting Iran to come to the table to re-negotiate the deal. It means some agreements of the deal should be re-visited and should be changed. So even though Trump administration exerted maximum pressure policy on Iran, Iran didn't give up. Instead it came up with maximum resistance. In the recent days, Iran even shot a U.S. drone and in this year, U.S. killed an Iranian general. So the tensions became very hot and people even expected that U.S. and Iran may go into war. But with the change of presidency, all the international experts are optimistic that U.S. and Iran along with other European nations may come up with one more deal which will be peaceful and beneficial for all the key players of the West Asian region. So we have to wait and see what is going to happen once Biden takes the presidency of U.S. in the coming month. And this news article says that Iran is moving towards stepping up of nuclear enrichment. So this news article says that a new law was approved in Iran which mandates the Iran government to halt the UN inspections of its nuclear sites and step up uranium enrichment beyond the limit set under JCPOA nuclear deal. See under 2015 deal the civilian nuclear sites of Iran has been open for IAEA that is International Atomic Energy Agency's inspections. And this new law says that Iran should stop the IAEA's inspection of its nuclear sites and also should start enrichment of uranium. So when we start enrichment of uranium it means we are going to prepare an atomic bomb. So this law would make it even harder for Joe Biden to rejoin and renegotiate the agreement. So one side people are optimistic about Joe Biden as next president but on the other side Iran is even making it complicated to come back to nuclear deal. So let us wait and see what is going to happen in the coming months. So this is all about the discussion of these new articles. Just have a brief idea of JCPOA. What are the tensions in West Asia? And what are the different power centers in West Asia? Let us move on to next news article discussion. This article says that India's own vaccines could be available almost immediately for public use after the completion of phase 3 trials. See clinical trials are usually conducted in phases that build on one another. Each phase is designed to answer certain questions related to a drug. The term phase indicates stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or a biological product. So the phase is based on studies objective, number of participants and other characteristics. So generally there are 5 phases. Early phase 1, formerly listed as phase 0, then phase 1, phase 2, phase 3 and phase 4. So phase 0 trials are first clinical trials done among people. It means before that generally the trials will be done on animals. So this phase 0 trials aim to learn how a drug is processed in the body and how it affects the body. And coming to phase 1, it is a phase of research to describe clinical trials that focus on the safety of a drug. They are usually performed with healthy volunteers and the goal is to determine the drug's most frequent and serious adverse events and often how the drug is broken down and excreted by the body. So these trials usually involve a small number of participants. And coming to phase 2, it is a phase of research to describe clinical trials that gather preliminary data on whether a drug works in people who have certain condition or disease. For example, participants receiving the drug may be compared to similar participants receiving a different treatment, usually an inactive substance called a placebo or a different drug. So safety continues to be evaluated and short term adverse events are studied. So phase 2 is about test effectiveness and further evaluate safety. Coming to phase 3, it is a phase of research to describe clinical trials that gather more information about drugs safety and effectiveness. This is done by studying different populations, different dosages and by using drug in combination with other drugs. So this phase confirm effectiveness, also monitor side effects and collect more information. So these studies typically involve more participants. And coming to phase 4, it is a phase of research to describe clinical trials occurring after getting approval for drug marketing. So they include post market requirement and commitment studies. So these trials gather additional information about a drug safety, efficacy or optimal use. So simply put, phase 4 provides additional information after approval. So have a very brief idea on these four phases of clinical trial. So today's news article says that India's own vaccines, for example, Covaxin could be available almost immediately for public use after the completion of phase 3 trials. And article also mentions the term emergency use authorization. It means this authorization allows the medicine or the vaccine to be used on the public during health emergencies. As getting approval for a vaccine will take more time. See for example, Central Drug Standard Control Organization that is CDSCO, has earlier granted approval for the emergency use of remdesivir to treat COVID-19 patients. CDSCO comes under Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and the functions of CDSCO are given here. Just have a very brief idea. So today we have discussed what are the different phases of a clinical trial and also emergency use authorization. That is we are authorizing the usage of drug in an emergency situation. So this is all about the discussion of this news article. Let us move on to next news article discussion. See this lead article from today's editorial page is with reference to an important legal question that is widely being discussed. Yes, we are talking about the religious conversion with reference to marriage. So we will try to discuss some of the relevant aspects in this analysis. The relevant syllabus is given here for your reference. See imagine two individuals who are belonging to different religions enter into a relationship and they decide to marry. For our convenience and to better relate to much talked news, let us assume that one individual is from Muslim and other individual is from Hinduism. So when they decide to marry, there could be several circumstances. One of the partners might willfully accept the principles of other religion and may adopt the religion of her or his partner and convert to the other religion. So in this case, a Hindu girl may convert into Islam or a Islam boy can convert into Hinduism. But the current buzz across the country is in the name of love jihad, Muslim men are intentionally supporting the Hindu girls and causing lot of troubles for them after the marriage. So in this context, different people across the country are having a antagonistic view on Muslim people. So coming back to our example, here the conversion came out of conscience and own will are not an account of any compulsion or any influence. So either girl or boy who is converting into other religion is not under any compulsion. But imagine another example where the family of one or both partners coerces or influence their child to ensure conversion of partner to other religion. So coming back to our example the family of a Islam boy say is forcing the girl to convert into Islam. They say that only then they will give approval for the marriage of their son or daughter. So here there are two situations. First one, the couple may be in disadvantage position to fight the inequities imposed on them by their parents because the parents are saying that if the partner is converted, the marriage is going to happen. There will be even death threats to their child or to their child's partner. As we know parents are also operated by some persons of community or the society. So at this stage, though not out of belief one of the partners may convert to other religion out of free will. The person may say it is not out of belief but out of my free will I have converted to my partner's religion. Over the course of time the person seeing the wrath of parents or nearby society may reconvert that is convert back to his or her previous religion. So these are the problems related to interfaith marriages in our country. And this comes mainly when a Muslim boy is marrying a Hindu girl. And there are even some laws which are prohibiting these kind of conversions. For example we have a law in Madhya Pradesh as well as in Odisha. So in few states laws require that a district magistrate be informed each time a conversion was made. And also these laws prohibit any conversion that was obtained through fraud or force. So this is the case of Odisha, Madhya Pradesh etc. The next condition is that the two adults may decide to follow no religion and wants to live peacefully. But even then the immediate families in the name of rituals, religion may cause some kind of trouble to the married couple. And in the recent days even UP government promulgated an ordinance called Uttar Pradesh prohibition of unlawful conversion of religion ordinance. So as per this ordinance no person shall convert or attempt to convert any other person from one religion to other by use of practice of misrepresentation force, undue influence, coercion or by any other fraudulent means or by marriage. And if a converted person reconverts to previous religion that will not be considered as conversion under this ordinance. So according to this law if a person is converting only sake of marriage even then it is not acceptable. So it may be out of free will but not by faith. So this is the basic objective of UP ordinance. Then who can give the complaint? See if complaint is being given by one of the partners then it is not a problem. But the ordinance says that any aggrieved person, his or her parents brothers, sisters or any person related to boy or girl by blood or marriage or even adoption may file a complaint for conversion of religion. So there is a very big ambit of people who can complain on the conversion. See we know that couple in a relationship face opposition from their own family members if they are in relationship with a person of different religion. See most of us have seen many cases where parents have refused to accept even both boy and girl are belonging to same religion. So obviously when people belong to different religion there will be more resistance from parents of both sides. So what if one of them give complaint and the couple is harassed and falsely implicated for this. For example the brother of a girl or brother of a boy who is not happy with the marriage may simply go to police station and raise a complaint. And for this complaint the couple will be harassed. But we have to note that this provision is not completely meaningless. Why because? See for example assume that girl has been converted to other religion here and she is not even allowed out of her house. And who will complain? Obviously her parents or brother or sister has to complain. So this provision if rightly used is beneficial and also prone to misuse. So according to the ordinance the punishment of conversion for marriage is imprisonment of 1 year to 5 years and also fine. See it is widely reported in social media even in many newspapers that ordinances are being brought to prevent muslim men from entering into relationship with Hindus. So some people are even saying that this is an attempt by muslim fundamentalists to convert a Hindu adult to Islam in the name of Love Jihad. So this is one opinion which we are seeing mostly in the social media. So petitions are filed in supreme court to declare the UP ordinance as unconstitutional and null and void. But we have to wait and see what court is going to pronounce. And today's article also says that in a recent order the alhabad high court declared that religious conversions even made solely for the purposes of marriage constitute a valid exercise of persons liberties. And high court even said that freedom to live with a person of one's choice is intrinsic to the fundamental right to life and personal liberty. The court even invoked the supreme court judgment in Puttaswamy case that is the right to privacy case. So there are even few judgments wherein high court has said that conversion by an individual to Islam was valid only when it was predicated on change of heart and on an harnessed conviction in the tenets of the newly adopted religion. It means only if you are having faith in opposite religion then it will be valid. So there are different high court judgments in this aspect. So we have to wait and see how supreme court is going to decide on this very important matter with respect to religion. So what is your take on this? If you have any opinion just post them in the comment sections. What do you feel by the UP ordinance? Do you really believe in Love Jihad? So if you have any opinions regarding this you can post them in the comment section. One thing I would like to add here is don't be carried away by any news articles just have your own view of what is morally right and wrong and never ever forget that we are a secular country. This is all about the discussion of the lead article along with other news article on UP ordinance. As we are talking about religion that is one more international aspect of religion in today's newspaper. Let us have a very quick view of this news article. So the news article says that India has asked the UN to expand its criticism of hatred and violence against religions beyond the three Abrahamic religions. When we say Abrahamic religions we are referring to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. We also said that India would fully agree to anti-Semitism which means hatred towards a particular religion, Islamophobia, anti-Christian acts. All these acts need to be condemned and India firmly condemns such acts. But the India's representative in UN has further said that resolutions on such important issues speak only of these three Abrahamic religions together. So we are saying that UN is self-centered only on three religions which are Judaism, Christianity and Islam and it is not considering the hatred towards Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism etc. See actually we know that in the last year we had attack in New Zealand called Christ Church attack wherein Muslims were targeted and in the response churches in Sri Lanka were targeted and in the recent days we are seeing beheading of people by Islamic fundamentalists in France. So on all these aspects UN has condemned with a firm voice as pointed out by India's representative. UN is not so firm and strong when it comes to hatred towards Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism. See overall Hinduism has more than 1.2 billion followers Buddhism around 500 million followers, Sikhism 30 million followers. So India is asking UN to maintain equality across all faiths. So this is all about the discussion of this news article. Just have a brief idea that India has raised issue of religions hatred in UN. We can write it somewhere in our mind and it means answers. Let us move on to practice questions discussion session. This question is based on fundamental rights. Subject to which of the following all persons are equally entitled to freedom of conscience and the right freely to profess practice and propagate religion in India. So three conditions are given here. Public order, morality and health. Yes all the three are exemptions to article 25 wherein it says that subject to public order, morality and health all persons are equally entitled to freedom of conscience and right freely to profess practice and propagate religion. So the correct answer is option D 1, 2 and 3. With respect to CDSCO under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare consider the following statements. So four functions are given here which of the above are functions of CDSCO. All four are the functions of CDSCO. See as you can see here the functions of CDSCO include approval of new drugs and clinical trials. So one and three are included. Second import registration and licensing. Third license approving of blood banks, LVPs, vaccines etc. So four is also included. Amendment to DNC Act and Rules banning of drugs and cosmetics. So function 2 is also included. And other functions include grant of test license, personal license, NOCs for export, testing of new drugs, oversight and market surveillance. So correct answer is option D 1, 2, 3 and 4. Let us take up these two main questions. The existing measures are sufficient to effectively address criminalization of politics. Critically examine. You have to take a critical stand of the given statement and try to answer this question. And this question is based on India's foreign policy with the threats posed by more dominant neighbors and the changing geopolitical situations in South Asia. India should rework on its neighborhood policies to fulfill the aspiration of being a real leader in the regional level as well as in the global level. Comment.

Shvaganda is a very potent Ayurvedic herb that possesses very strong stress relieving properties. It has been used in traditional medicine for ages because it helps people reduce and relieve anxiety and stress. And today in the modern world it is also often used as a great alternative to antidepressants. Now I've been taking Shvaganda for a very long time for several years actually and I can tell you it is a real game changer. But the thing is Shvaganda is non-toxic. However, many people report certain side effects and not many people talk about the side effects especially not many experts. So I decided to check all the potential side effects you can experience with Shvaganda and that's what I'm going to talk about today. And I'll also tell you how to avoid those side effects. So let's check the first and the most common side effects. And the most common side effects are the aria and upset stomach. I personally never experienced those issues because I always followed the recommended dosage and I always took quality extract. But you can happen to have this issue and if it does happen to you then you need to check if you're taking a quality compound or if you're taking maybe a too high dosage of Shvaganda. People who reported those issues to me are my followers who were experimenting with other entropics and they were combining them making their own entropic stacks. So if you don't do that at home if you know what you're taking if you're taking the right quality compound at the right dosage then this should not happen to you and you shouldn't worry about these effects too much. Also keep in mind that the recommend daily dosage is 300 to 600 milligrams per day of an extract and you can take up to six grams of powder. If you stick to that then those side effects that I mentioned are probably not going to happen but if you get over that then well you never know what's going to happen. Sedation and mild drowsiness can also happen to you. Yes it is true Ashvaganda is a little bit sedative and it can cause drowsiness. Now if you are a very active individual if you are CEO or manager or a professional that needs lots of brain power and try to achieve big performance then I suggest you do not take Ashvaganda in the morning because if you do then yeah you can maybe feel have less energy maybe feel more drowsiness and so on and the problem with drowsiness is that it can lead to demotivation. Now I didn't find a side effect in any of the studies it wasn't reported but some people talked about demotivation and probably it happens to them because well they have less energy they feel more relaxed and maybe because of that they feel less motivated. Now this similar happens if you supplement Bacopa Monieri and I often combine these two adaption herbs and you can learn more about Bacopa up here. So if this is a problem for you and if you really want to be productive want to be in this peak performance state then again take Ashvaganda in the afternoon or in the evening even better to avoid those issues. Now other side effects include increased thyroid levels yes Ashvaganda can increase your thyroid levels and this can be especially problematic if you suffer from hyperthyroidism it can decrease your blood pressure level it can cause constipation and it can even decrease your appetite. By the way guys if you like this video please press the like button below. Now those side effects are very rare I rarely heard about them also if you look at the scientific research you know they happen very very rarely but if they do here's what you can do. So first of all always follow the recommended dosage never take a higher than recommended dosage because that's when usually people suffer from the side effects that I just mentioned. Secondly always take a quality extract personally I'm a big fan of two extracts one is called KSM66 and the other is called Sensoryl both are great both are standardized extracts but there are some small differences and you can learn more about them in this video up here. Another thing you can do is do not take Ashvaganda in the morning and always cycle it this means take it for a while maybe for five days in a row and then stay two days off or maybe take it for three weeks in a row and then stay one week off just to be on the safe side. By the way guys do I know how well does your brain work?  Now if you have issues with drowsiness then you can combine Ashvaganda with a stimulant like coffee or caffeine or even with green tea extract or L-theanine this may increase your energy levels this can boost your focus and these compounds work really well together. Now there has been one case when a person was giving five grams of Ashvaganda for 10 days in a row and this person suffered from itching sensation on his penis so if you have a penis and if this happens to you then of course stop taking Ashvaganda immediately and consult your doctor. But yeah no doubt about that Ashvaganda is a real game changer there are so many benefits you can expect from Ashvaganda we didn't talk about those benefits today but check out this video up here and really learn everything you need to know about Ashvaganda before you start supplementing it. Thank you for watching this video don't forget to follow your inception on Facebook and Instagram and I hope to see you soon again.


He looks good, you know. We're leaving tomorrow for our favorite thing. Yes. I'm taking this weather with us. It's been raining out there. It's been raining out there. Yeah, but now, according to this morning, it's clear, but pretty cool. In fact, Dennis told me you had snow up at your range a couple of nights ago. Bill, is that light in your answer? Well, yeah, it is. Yeah, Dennis said it snowed up there, but it didn't melt right away. It didn't damage what it had done. As long as it melted right away. How is it burning? Oh, he's fine. Does he? Oh, yeah. He comes up every time we're out there. He and I go out and chop up the woods, do things like that. I think it goes way back, doesn't it? Yeah, way back. It's not a threat of time. Yes? Matter of fact, I still have the same one, and I'm still wearing it. So am I. I have been. You're in about the whole business. But he's still doing it. He is? He's still doing it. He sends him out every year. The picture is as good as this one, isn't it? He hasn't. That one was one of the rare ones. Most of them are pretty dull and uninteresting. I think the ceremony this morning would be more suitable than the live one. Yes. Is this one of us as good as he? That's all it's going to be. This is hot shots. You're filming me. Well, let's wait till we get there. Oh, I'm sorry. Maybe he's brought over some samples for us to hunt. I've been waiting. It's been three years after all. I could show this on the screen. It's true. You put a picture on there instead of doing it. That's just the regular dollar bills.  That's the concert. I just want you to recognize that. Because what you're going to see is the little resemblance. Hello. Hello. You can put away that. Yes. I'm leaving town tomorrow. Good morning. It doesn't help. You are preparing for Thanksgiving, Mr. President, you are preparing for Thanksgiving. Oh, yes. I spent 10 years of my life at the best. Mr. President, do you think the Soviets might walk out of the arms talks in Geneva? I'm not supposed to answer, but I don't think so. Can I ask Charlie if he's going to roll with the National Files in December? Yeah, the National Files.  All right, you ready, sir? This is a pretty good time to announce, right? Mr. President, this is a happy day. Well, just fine, but it's good to see you doing just fine. You were in there that day and saw you. Answer a problem for us if you have the answer. The argument was whether it was the gate to hit you or the bull's head to hit you. I think it was the bull's head to hit you. That's what I thought. I think it was his head to hit you. Well, thank God it's good to see you right now. Glad to be out. I wanted to present you with a National Files World Cup jacket. Last year I won the world and made some National Finals. And here's a jacket for you. The name's on there. Well now, are you going to be writing in the National Files? I'm just seeing how well my body performed this weekend. I'm getting practice bulls. And I have a specialized helmet that I'm going to try on these bulls. And if I really do good, I will write at the National Files. Well, good enough. Thank you. I'm very proud of you. Thank you. I'm proud to give it to you. So it's good to see you up. I should thank you. Thank you. You bet, Charlie.


Thanks a lot for being here, Pete. Thanks a lot for the invitation. It's an honor. It's nice to see a former colleague in the audience. So I study, I'm an economist, and I study migration and foreign aid, among other things. So I'm going to focus on particular aspects of this book. And you can understand everything I thought when reading this brilliant and really rich text by coming with me on a little journey to 1857. This woman is named Lucy. She lived in Massachusetts. The kid on the left is named John. He lived in North Carolina. And the question that the book begins with and explores from beginning to end is what does Lucy owe to John? John is poor and far from Lucy in every social geographic sense. Not what would be virtuous if Lucy did for John, but what would be things that would violate justice if Lucy did not do them for John. What is she obligated to do for him? And I'm going to walk through four proposed answers to this question, among many that are in the book. And Lomas Quintesson discard one by one the first three that I'm going to talk about and arrive at the fourth as one of the ones that they find legitimate. So the first answer you might give is nothing. Lucy owes nothing to John at all. Why? Because you might be one of a subschool of followers of John Rawls and believe that justice is defined within groups of citizens. And remember this is 1857, so just a few months ago, the Supreme Court declared that John is not a citizen. In fact, they declared that all persons of African descent, free or not, were not citizens. So if that is indeed the defining criterion of the spheres within which justice happens, then really nothing that Lucy does or doesn't do for John could have any just or unjust content. It would be an ill-posed question. So Lomas Quintesson attacked that view to me completely convincingly and much more sophisticatedly than I could have. I have never been able to accept the completely anti-cosmopolitan position for the more amateurish and simplistic reason that it can't account for acts of expatriation like this. If we feel that there was anything unjust at all about Scott vs. Sanford decision in 1857 or about the Republic of South Africa just declaring that people who lived in homelands like Baputatswana and Venda weren't citizens, then there must be something about justice that extends beyond citizenry. Not necessarily at all on completely equal terms, but certainly not zero. So the answer of nothing, Lucy owes nothing at all to John is not satisfactory. A second answer that they propose, that they explore at great length is that Lucy owes John large coerced transfers of money. So the responses to that that they explore, look, Lucy's really rich, John isn't. Isn't that unjust on its face and shouldn't there be redistribution from her to him? First of all, Lucy's not responsible for his poverty. The main reason John is poor is that he's enslaved. Historians are pretty sure that in this photo he's enslaved at the time. And Lucy, historians among you might recognize that this Lucy is Lucy Stone, who is a well-known abolitionist. So it would be hard to declare that she is personally responsible for the local political and economic institution that is principally responsible for John's poverty. So as a form of restitution, it's not easy to justify. Another problem is that suppose she were to be obliged to transfer money to the Thomas Bragg regime. He was the governor of North Carolina at the time. We can guess that he might not have used much of that money to benefit the population of North Carolina that was of African descent given that he went on to become the attorney general of the Confederacy. We might have good reason to believe that transfers to the Bragg regime would strengthen the very local political and economic institutions that were keeping John poor. If she could somehow get transfers in kind or in cash directly to John and bypass the regime, many forms of lasting change that she could have done for him like trying to give him schooling would have been actively subverted by the local political and economic institutions. The more education kids like John got, the more threatened the local power structure was and we can reasonably assume that they would actively try to keep those schools either closed or ineffective. To me, a profound contribution that the book makes is to make this link between questions of justice and questions of fact. So I point out this extreme example just to hopefully accurately portray the case that if we believe, and this is a factual claim, that global poverty is primarily caused by local political and economic institutions, then that has direct implications for the obligations that we have towards the distant global poor. You don't necessarily have to accept the first premise to believe that that is a connection, that that's an if-then. As a development economist and an economic historian, I think that they get the literature exactly right. So I'm talking about Darona Jamolu, Jim Robinson, Avner Greif, Stanley Engerman, Kenneth Sokoloff, and it almost goes without saying, the great recently lost Douglas North, that there's really a close to a consensus among the leading economic scholars of this issue that local political and economic institutions are the principal determinant of long-term economic growth and power re-relection. Now, you could debate about the effects of outsiders on those local political and economic institutions. It's certainly not zero, Nathan Nunn at Harvard has documented long-term effects of slavery in Africa. It would be hard to argue that the activities of colonizers in the Belgian Congo were irrelevant to the local political and economic institutions that DR Congo has right now, but it would likewise be difficult to argue that the extraordinary wealth and prosperity of Hong Kong has nothing to do with colonization either. And of course there are countries like Ethiopia, which is one of the poorest places in the world and was never colonized. So this is not a simple relationship at all. And you could debate these factual claims, but I think they make a very balanced assessment of the literature and certainly it is a defensible claim that there is the primacy of institutions and the ambiguity of the effect of foreign interventions on those institutions is such that there is not a clear responsibility of people in today's rich countries for that poverty across the board. Certainly not across the board. Now, how about a third proposal? Lucy owes it to John to forcibly prevent kids like him from coming to Massachusetts, block them by the border, maybe stop them from leaving. She owes that to him. Lo mas cantes on go through a variety of arguments for why people could hypothetically believe that to be true and demolish all of them in sometimes spectacular fashion. You could argue for example that Lucy owes it to her white neighbors to preserve their freedom of association because they prefer associating with white people in Massachusetts. And I hope I don't even need to comment on that one, but Lo mas cantes on do take these things very seriously and they point out among many other things that such an obligation would violate Lucy's right to associate with black people if she wants to. And there are many, many other reasons why her obligation to preserve others' freedom of association is problematic at best. Another reason why you might think that Lucy owes it to kids like John to prevent people from like him from coming from North Carolina to Massachusetts is the fact that in 1852 Massachusetts got compulsory public schooling. So as of 1857 if a kid like him who certainly has zero schooling shows up in Massachusetts they're going to get schooling and that's going to impose a cost on other people. Now Lo mas cantes on takes this very seriously. They're very skeptical of coercive taxation. They make the core point that forcibly stopping people at the border is only one of many ways that you could address that fiscal problem. Maybe I differ slightly with the range of policy tools that they talk about. For example they discuss and pretty much rule out as unsustainable ways to have immigrants have a delayed period before which they can benefit from social services or mechanisms for them to pay for social services themselves. I wouldn't rule those out for the simple reason that we have such things right now and they work okay social security. You cannot get any of it until you have paid into the system for 40 quarters. So minimum 10 years probably longer unless you work every quarter. That's a compromise. That's saying we understand that if you come at 63 and you don't work for 10 years you're not going to have any public protection for your retirement and you might end up starving on the street but that's too bad because we are making a compromise between the free riding problem and the accessibility problem. I think there's maybe more room for compromise than the book talks about. The book is much more skeptical of the persistence of most kind of social services I would say but I think it's not the only answer you could come to which doesn't affect at all the core point that stopping John from coming to Massachusetts is just one of a variety of ways you could address the issue of taking money from other Massachusettsians, other base staters I should say, to school him. Finally, there's an entire chapter on brain drain that to me because I work on this is just worth the price of admission itself. So a third reason that you could hypothetically say Lucy owes it to kids like John to trap kids like him in North Carolina and not let them into Massachusetts is that getting to the north is difficult. It's costly. You have to have a lot of smarts and drive and savvy in order to make it in the north particularly if you haven't had a good education and that means that some of the smartest, most energetic kids are going to be the first ones to leave and that somehow black communities of North Carolina at this time would lose from his migration. Now they go through a range of answers to this proposal, ultimately ruling it out. I think it's just brilliant. One of the things they talk about is, well, you could be concerned that if there was education that he received, it was black communities who were paying for it themselves and their investment is lost when he goes. And I think that's not a serious objection. I got primary schooling in Salt Lake City, Utah and then left and it was not a financial investment that they made in the expectation of a cash return. It was a, that was paid for so that I could pursue my dreams wherever they took me and I was never asked to pay it back and I should never be asked to pay it back. They also talk about the idea that natural endowments, not the expenditure on schooling, but the natural smarts of kids like John could be lost to black communities of the South if they're allowed to leave. They go through a detailed treatment of the question, do you own your natural talents? Do you own your brain? I would go even further than they go in the book and just point out that if you actually believe that people should be blocked from leaving or taxed because of their natural talents, then it would be interesting to read a paper by Greg Mankiew where he proposes a tax on height that is actually enormous. And for some of the people in this room would mean tens of thousands of dollars a year going to the federal government due to the natural endowment of your height which has been shown by I think it's Ann Case and a co-author to affect your income. Among many other things, for example being born in a rich country, if you really believe that the things you acquired at birth should be taxed away just because you have them like brains, like height, like your citizenship that you received at birth, then you're signing up for a very large tax to be redistributed to the world. I would go even further than they do. Five more minutes? Is it okay?  It was coined in 1963 by tabloid journalists in Great Britain to talk about the departure of British scientists for places like the US. It's a pejorative term. There's no way I could tell you that your country is experiencing a drain and have that be good news. It's a pejorative little rhyme. And it really embodies the assumption that the departure of skilled people does harm. It harms development, causes harm. And what I've pointed out before that if I say that the departure of skilled people from Haiti, for example, causes under development in Haiti, that is synonymous with saying that stopping skilled migration by any means is sufficient, not just necessary, but sufficient to cause greater development. Because cause implies all else equal. And all else equal in the case of departure includes my reasons for departure. So if my reasons don't change and my activities do, if my desire to give Pete my wallet doesn't change but he ends up with my wallet, that's coercion. So it is to say skilled migration causes under development is logically synonymous with saying that forcing me not to migrate as a skilled person is sufficient to cause development. Those are the same statement. And when rephrased in that way, sometimes just rephrasing a sentence can make it clear like Carl Hempel and other philosophers of science like to do, there's no evidence for that at all. And I really mean none ever. There is no poor neighborhood that has been shown to have been improved or developed by preventing smart people from leaving there. There's no poor region of any country and there's certainly no nation that has ever been shown to get better medical care or conduct more innovation or have more entrepreneurship or have anything else good happening in it due to having coercively stopped smart people from leaving there. It's really entirely conjectural that that could even happen and maybe too conjectural to even use phrases like brain drain. So I tried to come up with a similarly rhyming cute little phrase and failed utterly. My co-author, Lance Pritchett, proposed cortex vortex, which I think is just a failed attempt with all due respect to land. I just call it skilled migration. So how about a fourth and final proposal for what Lucy owes to John? That Lucy owes John non-interference. That if John wants to go to Massachusetts, she actually owes it to him not to stop him and if she does stop him, she is doing something that is unjust. And this to me is just beyond question. In this case, there were certainly cases where even the police department of good old Boston stopped, detained, held, runaway slaves, forced them to go home and there were huge demonstrations and riots against this. It was considered something gravely unjust. Retrospectively, I think it's pretty obvious that it was unjust, but even at the time it was recognized that this was terribly unjust. And the fundamental mental transformation that Lomas Quintesson invited us to on this particular point, and I think it's just tectonic in its effect on your thinking, is that migration barriers are active, not passive. Stopping somebody from moving is stopping them from moving. People don't like to think about this, but here is a two sentences from Adam Smith that made it clearer to me than I could say. Every man is much more deeply interested in whatever immediately concerns himself than in what concerns another man. To hear perhaps of the death of another person with whom we have no particular connection will give us less concern, will spoil our stomach, or break our rest much less than a very significant disaster has befallen ourselves. So certainly we place much less weight on people who are distant from us. Next sentence, But though the ruin of our neighbor may affect us much less than a very small misfortune of our own, we must not ruin him to prevent that small misfortune, nor even to prevent our own ruin. That is, there's something fundamentally asymmetrical that does not require anything like starry-eyed full cosmopolitanism of Lucy equally caring about John with her own sister to believe that she has a responsibility not to stop him from escaping something that causes his poverty, that is to ruin him, not even to prevent her own ruin. Who is doing the act is critical. And there's something that puzzles me always about how people talk about migration and it's phrases like this, Donald Trump's companies have sought visas to import workers. Notice the transitive verb. Import has a direct object. It's something that somebody does to somebody else. Rich States told to stop poaching doctors. Again, transitive verb, direct object. Michigan wants visas to bring immigrants to Detroit. Transitive verb. This book from University of Minnesota Press. Migrants for export. Export, transitive verb, direct object. This is a fantasy. It's actually objectively wrong. And it's like a woman going to work at a firmful of men and saying, well, what happened there? Well, the men brought her in. If you doubt that, I'm sure there are many people from other countries in this room. After the talk, just ask them, what was it like when the U.S. brought you here? What happened? Tell me about what the United States did to you in order for you to be here. They'll probably be kind of puzzled and say, well, I did that. It's not an accurate representation of that event to call it something that a country did to somebody. So why would people do this? Well, it certainly changes the ethical calculus completely. I should say it changes the calculus of justice completely. In that, if I've had people say to me many times, well, what's my responsibility to solve the poverty of the world? Why do I need to bring Haitians here? Well, you don't need to bring Haitians here. But that has nothing to do with migration.  But there's no other option. There was a time when we shackled up people and put them in ships and sent them places, but that doesn't happen anymore except in extremely limited cases. You either block it or you don't. And that's the calculus of justice in this case. It has nothing to do with this. And this fantasy might exist for the purpose of letting people reach a different conclusion on what is just or unjust than the one that is brilliantly and I think richly defended in this book. With that, I want to move on to other subjects and thanks a lot.
