The USA Still Number One 1961

On Sun, 2 Jul 2006, Kamal R. Prasad

The "antiquated" dictionary is another problem with many people. I'd like to know why a printed page, in your mind, is worth less than an electronic page, probably put together by a less educated mind and definitely accessible to hacking, editing, or even removal by those who are mischeivious. The bias against established knowledge, as exists in REAL libraries in the form of REAL reference sources existing in real physical objects such as books is just incredible.

This is incorrect in the context of your sentence "..of a given ethnic group" just two lines up. See below.

Jews were the target

The fact is that Jews were considered, by the Nazis, also as inferior human beings (and an outgrowth of existing anti-Semitism). Non-Jew non German-Aryans were considered as intermediate. There was NOT an extermination (=gas chamber) program against non-Jew-non-German-Aryans like there was for the Jews. Anyone that "got in the way of the Nazis" was just gunned down, put into POW camps, or sent to the factories as slaves to make ammo.

Why can;t you understand that a struggling poor man

I have no idea what this sentence has to do with the one before it that you also wrote. And, the second half makes no sense to me in connection with the first half.

I have no idea why you like the word "liquidation" when you probably should be using the word "kill." That is, unless you want to glorify what is pure homicide based on questionable motives.

Good, this is what I'm trying to get across to you. You direct a lot of hate just at the USA when in fact this behavior is everywhere and all through history.

You should understand that "genocide" (or conquests of a narrowly definable peoples) have been going on for thousands of years. I'm now on volume 8 of Will Durant's 10 volume set of "The Story of History" (650-1100 pages per volume) and before I read what I read, I had almost zero appreciation for this fact compared to what I know now.

One of your biggest problems is that you like to talk about the USA doing bad things as if it is ONLY the USA that is doing bad things.

And, one of your other biggest problems is a basic failure to recognize that a lot of bad things went on in India, all by itself (eg. Dalit repression for 3,000 years, sati = burning widdows after husbands died, slavery still exists in India today, etc.) without influence from any foreign country.

Let

You and I are free to express our opinions and we are free to cross examine each other. Any audience out there is welcome to express their opinions.

Well, what the hell do you mean by "liquidation" and don't be cute. Be specific.

Yeah, well all of California is such that "whites" are a minority, and the next larges groups are Hispanic and Asian (not Koreans) which means there are a lot of non-Korean Asians there.

What I heard was that Asians owned or ran many if not a majority of shops. I do not recall that shops not owned by Asians or Koreans were sellectivly sheltered, protected, or avoided by the rioting. So, if you want to make a suggestion about who got hit, then at least you either qualify your statement or provide a reference. A lot of times you shoot your mouth off without being careful to qualify your sentence or at least say where you heard it.

Unverified, and still no reference. I questioned this above.

The shops had

Real wealth? You don't know if that is net wealth or leveraged wealth. You may want to say the shops had asetts in them.

Any

Why are you switching from shopkeeper to engineer, and why are you switching from Koreans to Indians?

And? So what?

You mean like how well you can spell words in this paragraph?

-the shifting would have come to an end by

This is really a poor and inadequate analysis of the cause-effect relationship leading to shifting. And, it ignores the reports of offshoring failure rates. It also ignores other studies that are predicting a leveling off of shifting, or do I need to start saving up the refernces to those, too?

Instead, it looks like a lot of engg job functions are leaving for

There are lots of centers, offices, factories being set up in 3rd worlds as part of an effort to market-sell services IN those 3rd world countries, not just sell products-services back into the USA. Or, did this not occur to you, either? If the USA economy tanks, then the USA market will dry up, or did this, too, not occur to you, either. Or, do I need to save up another file full of statements about our MNCs that have as part of their goal the selling to markets in 3rd world countries?

The CEO who signs the order fir the transfer is reacting to the

I would say that the "success" is in about 25% of the offshoring. About 50% is canceled and the process brought back. In the last 25%, the poorer quality of the product is accepted as the price of lower costs. Its in the reports I cited.

-but has no roile to play in

And, when the project fails, the CEOs either bring the work back or go someplace else (eg. Ireland, etc.)

The disadvantage comes from

Monetary policy poo; they just look at "product delivered" and "cost" period. They don't care about economics or politics.

Change the

Its not that easy.

As if there are no problems in India, caused completey by Indians and no one else.

300 yrs

Again, slavery exists, today, in India, on a wide scale in the rug factories. Anyone can find this themselves using any search engine.

Now they do it by inflating the currency so that

Whose "civic rights"? Months ago you were saying that "you can't legislate how private equity spends its money." Now, all of a sudden, you start talking about "civic rights"? How about you explain this to me? I've been talking about "rights" all along and you just push it aside as if only poeple with money have rights. Maybe you can explain to me, since you have been asking me why "we" are "enbreastled" to anything, how you, now, can say "people will forfeit their civic rights....".

Earlier they had whips and some other means to ensure slaves

Oh, you mean people from elsewhere should be able to come here and do anything they want without anyone asking them questions and if they give the wrong answers then they can't come?

As human society progresses, the

Bad choice of word.

also become sophasticated

Lets go back to what the British (and others) did in India. Remember what you said many months ago? Do you think the British (and others) did net good or net bad for India?
