Do you think it is right for American businesses to go to India?

They build there business in a new country and force them to work there for a low price and then bring it back to america and sell it for high money. Do you think it is right? For the Indians on MyLot, what do you think of the american businesses in your country and do you work in any?

I don't think it's right for either of our countries. The reason they go to your country is because they can get your people to work for less. They don't force you to work for them. Do they? It's because your government has lower wage standards and lets the companies get away with paying you low wages. They can also get away with less pollution controls and pay less taxes than they would in the U.S. I think they are bribing your officials with some of the money they save. It also drives down the wage standards in the U.S. because those types of jobs usually pay a decent wage over here.

Well at least they are offering you jobs. I think the American public should be more upset about it than people in India. Our jobs are the ones being shipped overseas.
