"Next time anyone talks about development and POSCO in the same breath, throw these statistics at them. Mining doesn't benefit states. Mining doesn't really generate local employment as much as they claim. Forget about resettlement too. After you've done that, ask them when can the govt come to their houses and bulldoze them to make roads? For 'development' of course."
