[ps1074]

I forgot they will air it today, so I just caught it.

I don't know what to expect but I think at the end the conclusion will be "Outsourcing is good for India. Look at how it changes these poor people lives. Don't be economic girlie men and say yes to outsourcing" or something like that...

Outsouring helps create middle class in India. People rise from the misery and start feeling like normal people.

No word yet that whole creating middle class in India it turns America's middle class worker back to misery.

OMG... Shocking news to me.

555 million indians are under the age of 25. I still can't believe it. Right now they shouldn't have SS problems but look out when all these young people start to retire.
