Who needs the World Bank anyway?

Misha Singh tells us:

The scandal-ridden World Bank, recently in the headlines for a corruption scandal involving then-President Wolfowitz, will face deep scrutiny when the Independent People’s Tribunal on the World Bank in India opens next month in New Delhi. More than 50 groups from around India will assemble before an international jury to present their grievances against World Bank projects and policies.

Go, take it all out: your anger at schools that do not have classrooms, clinics that don’t have doctors, roads that disappear every monsoon, villages that have never seen clean water or electricity or basic sanitation, corruption, nepotism, communal violence and caste oppression etc. etc.,. It doesn’t matter whether the World Bank has anything to do with all those problems. Who needs the World Bank?
