I'm sorry to say this to the DUers who are so fond of Hillary. I was at one time very fond of her too.
But, I smell the odor of stinking corruption. Someone is making money from these deals. It is not American workers. I can guarantee you that much.
And although India has many, many, many people living in dire poverty, their problems were not caused by the US, and we cannot help them.
The wealth in India needs to be used to lift the standard of all Indians. They need to make a lot of changes in their society and in their culture. They don't need our help. They need to help themselves.
We need to learn from the mistakes India has made over the centuries -- a terribly rigid caste system and lack of compassion. Further, India suffered from being a colonial outpost. It was terribly exploited, but not by us.
We should stay away from India. They can solve their own problems.
