EXPIRY DATES

This is probably first time I would be writing about something related to the physical world we live in. But most of it or I should say all of it has been inspired from my inside world which I always live in. Don't go by words, just bhawnao ko samjho.... :P
Ever heard a customer talk to shopkeeper about the expiry of certain commodity ...a common incident...yeah ?
If u r lucky u mite also have seen hoardings and ad campaigns to inspire the consumers to check this "expiry date" everytime befor bying any product....
But ever wondered, why does this situation ever come... India is a nation with more people below poverty line than above it, more people wanting than giving things.... more people living per square kilometer than anywhere in the world....Than why the hell things stay and stink in the market... All the datas suggest that demand is much higher than supply and that is why we are poor...But all this "expiry date" concept suggests the contrary...We are producing more than we need...
So for sure there is something wrong somewhere in between...Either surveys should be done to estimate the demand..money b invested in something usefull...or some steps which can mend all this...
A poor person spends even a dime after a lot of thinking... and we say we are poor but waste as if we have all the wealth in this world... And this only forces the shopkeeper to tell fake tales about the "expiry dates" and somehow get rid of their products...


WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT
