This article truthfully and factually describes the extreme inequality and looting and plunder of resources by a tiny minority of rich and super-rich in Pakistan, as well as their drastic effects on the impoverishment of great masses of working, poor, and disadvantaged people there. These conditions have drowned the country in huge external and internal debts, as well as enslaved it to the constant borrowing from the IMF and other multilateral and bilateral lenders. Many critical policies are being dictated to the country of around 240 million people by the IMF now. Inflation and prices of essentials for life are record high. Representatives of capitalist, feudal, and tribal classes – of which military is the most dominant force – continue to dominate political, economic, judicial, and social life of society. Corruption and failure of capitalist-feudal-tribal “democracy” and electoral processes have reached zenith in Pakistan. No wonder that under these conditions so many people are involved in the activities of religious right and militant organizations.
