You know me the ultimate pessimist :)
Your analysis is right on the money - literally. Its the most logical conclusion a smart person like you would draw but I am not too sure that the powers to be in our country can think on these lines. They have a knack of making the wrong, hard and asinine choices without fail.
You know what they say that its hard to teach an old dog new trick and its more true in Pakistan than anywhere else.
I just hope and pray that it doesn't go by the way of previous promises and proclamation of economic revolution.
