"People trust tata more than they trust Indian government." this type of statement is so funy for Polish people... because "tata" = "dad" in Polish language. 😁

@wasimshaikh1665 Sounds like another lie... and this one is even less belivable that the one that company created in 1868 was the first with 8 hour day... In 1594, Philip II of Spain established an eight-hour work day by a royal edict: "Law VI That the workers work eight hours a day distributed as appropriate. All the workers will work eight hours a day, four in the morning, and four in the afternoon in fortifications and factories, which [The hours] are to be made, distributed at the most convenient times to get rid of the rigor of the sun, [and] more or less what seems to [be right to] the engineers, so that not missing a point of the possible [work], it is also attended to ensure their health and conservation. " And ofc not all companies profited from Opium trade because the whole point was to exploit many to make few influential families rich...

@motog-rocks6544 No it is not, plenty of communist countries did it and India was going into that direction and they were very close with USSR. Communist industry was simply unable to be a competition when they started to switch to more free market model of economy. Steel production is also dirty, labor intensive and power expensive so in many countries there was huge reduction in steel production.
