While we are aware of today's economy, affected by COVID pandemic; many have their opinions onto it.
The expected dip in India’s economic growth in the second quarter of 2020-21 could actually be among the highest sequential improvement showing countries in the world. From an unprecedented 23.9% contraction in the June quarter, the economy is seen shrinking 8.6% in the September quarter, as per the central bank and 10.2% according to independent economists polled by ET. But, economists cautioned against getting carried away by the improvement. (Source: ET Nov 27, 2020).
Well, all those are calculative, which probably more than half of Indian will not even bother to understand that. Amongst all those opinions, one stands out to be extremely hilarious but true too.
One such opinion is 'CYCLING is BAD for the ECONOMY', and here is how.....
He doesn't even use the paid parking. And, so he doesn't become obese.
Yes, it's true. He does cycling, so he is healthy too !!
Healthy people are not needed for the economy. And you know that why so?
They do not buy the medicines.
They do not go to hospitals more often and they don't visit doctors too.
They add nothing to country's GDP.
Think of the other side of it. Every new fast food outlet creates at least experts apart from people working in the outlet. Those outlets could be 'BurgerKing', or 'KFC', or 'SubWays', or anything similar for that matter.
So, choose wisely: A Cyclist or a KFC ??
By d way, Walking is even worse. They do not even buy a bicycle and the health benefits are more than or equal to the Cyclists!!
The above article is just a view from individual mind with lighter aspects; however the cycling or walking regularly have multiple health benefits which are recommended by our doctors. 💗💝
