Did you guys read about the story on 24 HOURS magazine (page 29)in Toronto, where they talk about "U.S. starting to outsource sugery" to India.


One of the comments in this article reads as follows, " Look at what we've outsourced-I'm even outsourcing my own health for God sakes."

Speech by Thomas Friedman of The New York Times....

"When we were young kids growing up in America, we were told to eat our
vegetables at dinner and not leave them. Mothers said, 'think of the
starving children in India and finish the dinner.' And now I tell my
children: 'Finish your maths homework. Think of the children in India
who would make you starve, if you don't.'"

This is not new . See the link and the associated article.
Now its cheaper to send staff to India for surgery. Britain is doing it. Number of them are coming to Chennai and Bangalore for surgeries.

NO ADVERTISING IN CHARCHA. Put your ad in classifieds.

Hi,

I'm an idiot who can't follow simple instructions. I've been told not to advertise on this discussion forum, however I have trouble understanding instructions that a 2-yr. old would cruise through.

Can I be blamed for being a moron? Since I'm a moron, I can't answer that.

Please don't visit my crappy site.
