all too true, and well put.
the situation you describe is one of the sticky ones, as you note. however, i would have to say that the way it is handled is quite a bit more pragmatic than a similar situation in america (i am sorry if i am misguided, but given your post, i am operating off the deduction that you live somewhere outside of the US..... Canada, maybe?).

i am hoping that our society is progressing in that direction, but perhaps more importantly addressing our problems in such a manner that there is culpable responsibility. what i mean to say is that if people stop blaming people of India for taking our call-center jobs, stop suing Intel or Dell or any number of thousands of other corporations, and hold our government accountable for allowing and even encouraging these practices, some progress may yet be made. if, however, we continue to fight amongst ourselves and claim reverse racism and blame the individual, nothing gets done.
a digression, i suppose, but a worthwhile one for the whole idea of discussion.
(and, dont worry about jacking the thread. i've wandered so far from the original question its a wonder the mods havent pulled the thread already :P)
