World WIde TATA Operations & Achievements in Perspective The Tata's are based in a huge country with an immense poverty stricken Population. Its inhabitants are bound, not only by poverty, but by a corrupt and degenerate governent, a caste system, and the practice of a muititude of degenerate and reprehensible systemically reinforced cultural and social practices. Operating from a base like India, no financial success of the TATA's should be compared to those of businesses operating under the constraints of the Western World. Even when Tata operates in the West, it has tremendous economic and employee control powers that give it a very strong advantage. Even with all that, it appears that the Tata backed NML, at least for the NML shareholders, is floundering in Canada.
