How Britain stole $45 trillion from India

There is a story that is commonly told in Britain that the colonisation of India – as horrible as it may have been – was not of any major economic benefit to Britain itself. If anything, the administration of India was a cost to Britain. So the fact that the empire was sustained for so long – the story goes – was a gesture of Britain’s benevolence. New research by the renowned economist Utsa Patnaik – just published  by Columbia University Press – deals a crushing blow to this narrative. Drawing on nearly two centuries of detailed data on tax and trade, Patnaik calculated that Britain drained a total of nearly $45 trillion from India during the period 1765 to 1938. https://bit.ly/3uAtTKI

Utsa Patnaik’s work  detailing the  “great steal” was first published in March 2018. Here is the chart for the Aries ingress of the Sun in March 2018 drawn for the midpoint of Delhi and London. As always, planetary combinations aspecting the angles are the ones to focus on. Here a  very prominent opposition of Kronos-Hades-Saturn aligns with the merdian. Martha Wescott provides the following interpretation.

Kronos-Hades: leadership attained or held at the cost of poverty and difficulty for others.

Saturn-Hades: poverty or other debilitation of long duration.

Kronos-Saturn: to see governments deal with consequences or challenge to their reputation.

Finally, here is the chart for the UK  (1 Jan. 1801; 0:00  LMT London) lunar return for March 2018. Once again notice the same alignment with the meridian.
