I understand the bottom line when it comes to coporate costs, and thats fine with me, but lets call a spade a spade and say straight out that the company is doing it to make money, not improve life in Inida.
Exactly. Show me the executive who said "Gosh darn it, I really want to give jobs to people in India because that will make me feel all warm and fuzzy and I'm really helping the world." They're over there because they're too cheap to pay the wages they'd have to pay in the U.S.

I remember reading an article about people in India working for U.S. companies and many of them were very unhappy. I don't remember all the details, but part of it was because they have to work odd hours since there's such a great time difference between here and there.
