What a load of drivel. First let me inform you why India will never "flood the market with cheap drugs". Because the companies who are paying Indians to make those cheap drugs in FDA approved facilities(the only way you'll sell them in the US.) will probably be owned by Americans! Now, before you shower with another "Indian's are holier than thou" post. Let me first debunk every load of crap you stated in your post. RE: Donations to Africa: biomedcentral.com. This article is from 2000. The US has always been the biggest donor to developing nations. Always. globalstrategies.org Re: Stem Cells. Whoopeee. A couple Indian companies are working on stem cells. Too bad they won't be able to afford the equipment to do any cutting edge research because the Indian government has too high a tariff. Also bear in mind they'll be competing with a number of other people accross the globe who are better funded and American companies. Re: India playing by international laws and regulations + WTO. The biggest line of crap of your whole post. How about them sweatshops???? wired.com newdream.org globalmarch.org sweatshopwatch.org How about that free trade? mac.doc.gov indianembassy.org google.com "India's tariffs average more than 100 percent and three of our largest customers, the EU, Japan, and Korea impose tariffs that are 3 to 5 times more than those of the United States, which averages 12 percent." ilfb.org How about those environmental regulations? business.nsw.gov.au Indians caused Bhopal. Indians have polluted their environment, so get over it and clean it up. If you can't produce goods without killing yourselves, then don't produce them. India is no better than any other country that breaks the backs of it's own people and hopes to steal from other peoples wealth. You can blather on all you want but the facts speak for themselves. India has a long way to go before you'll ever be competing on an even level with the 1rst world, and not ripping off jobs for absurdly low wages. So don't beat your chest about how proud India is for being the group of people who will do the "next to the lowest level" of work in the world. Voodoo Oh, and for some reason I can't quite understand, all of the Indian guys I work with aren't clammering to get back to India to work. I just don't understand that. Hmm...
