The Indians are vastly overrated in what they can do. There are huge problems in what you expect from them and what can be delivered. The only reason every job in America is not outsourced is because Americans can still do the job better. Describing Indians as drones is not that far off. They often lack the aggression and ingenuity of Americans. They are a very feminized country. But, look closely at the American work force and you’ll see that 25 percent of that force is what makes it happen. A third of the American work force is just a drain on the rest of the country.

don’t know about the ratios — might be worse — but can’t disagree in principal.

You can in fact get Indian guys who are very creative, intelligent, and aggressive. Unfortunately, Microsoft and Google have hired them all for very high salaries.

The regular guys in India are OK to do routine work at a low price. Their is no need to hire mediocre Americans to do ho-hum tasks for $60K when you can get a mediocre Indian guy for $20K.

Honestly, I can't understand why the unemployment rate isn't more like 50%. The government schools have done a thorough job of completing their subversive mission.
