POLITICS: Politician Launches 'Rent-a-Crowd' Company in India

A former politician in India is launching a new company that will offer cheering crowds to other politicians for use in political rallies. The company has already been inundated with job applicants willing to be paid for attending rallies and cheering politicians. One applicant offered to "participate in any mode of agitation including violent ones -- if he got a bottle of liquor and chicken curry every day."



I think things like this go on everywhere, but this is the first time I've seen it publicly commercialized. I hope this doesn't spread to violent protests as offered by that one applicant.

What's the big deal? Bush&Co have admitted to hiring people to cheer/ask questions. Remember Gurket? The gay prostitute the GOP used to suck up to Bush/ask easy questions to take up time in timed press conferences.

Or the fake town halls where actors were paid to worship Bush on tv.

All polititians have supporters, some are paid others are like rock star groupies.

I think India is on a capitalist track when you start to hear about companies called rent a crowd. I

n the States if you want a crowd just announce that there are 10 kegs at a certain address and you have a crowd.
