I don't get it. Are you turning a commie? Don't you know about market laws? In capitalism there is NO 'proper' pay for your work, it depends on the market. And if in the market there's a million Indians wishing to work at that rate and you want your country to protect you then either you want a 'free ride' or your belief in capitalism is bullshit, or both. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
