America America:
It is funny when I hear someone talking about lack of values in families in America, war with Iraq, and decrease in American dollar value. In the next sentence, they talk about the prosperity of Indian economy and Indian companies (call centers to be specific). However the very same people have their own children in the US and receive dollars from them. They also state that their nieces and nephews are working hard to come to America and so they have secured a job in such and such company. This is puzzling to me. Many earn dollars in the US and invest in India in real estate now. I am stating this from conversations but not from any research data.
If one does not like the social living conditions in the US, why should they try to go to that country? If dollar value is going down in the US and if the economy here in India is better, why should one try to go out of India and come to America? Every other family I met has a family member living in the US!!!!
I see a great conflict in what people here say in words about America, but their actions seem to be that they want to live in America!!!! This is still a puzzle. I have openly debated this week but I am still puzzled and I have not yet found a straight answer!
