A short instance, real life, of an Indian in US:

scene: a restaurant, three people having beer on a table. Me, Amit, Doug.

Amit to Doug: (during conversation) aren’t you bothered that India is eating up jobs of US.
Doug: “I am not worried, if I have one car or no car, instead of two. My idea is that all wealth in world should be equally distributed among all the people of the world. Even if that means that I would then be living in one bedroom house. Its OK with me!.................

…… it pains me more when is see people starving in African countries or other countries.

My citizenship of US does not confer me any right to eat more than anybody in the world. It disturbs me more when I see US attacking Afghanistan, Iraq….when I see innocent civilian getting killed.
There are many more serious things to worry about than “jobs going India”

Amit: (Embarassed) ok ok , I understand.
